RECENT  GIFTS 

The  facilities  of  many  of  the  state  educational  institutions 
of  the  South  have  in  recent  years  been  increased  by  substan- 
tial gifts.  With  deep  gratitude  the  University  acknowledges 
that  it  also  has  profited  by  this  generosity.  It  feels  confident 
that  other  broad-minded  persons  v^^ill  desire  to  help  in  its 
upbuilding.  All  gifts,  of  whatever  nature  or  value,  will  be 
gladly  received  and  acknowledged. 

Chair  of  Secondary  Education. — This  opportunity  is  taken 
of  acknowledging  the  annual  gift  by  the  General  Education 
Board,  of  New  York,  of  seventeen  hundred  and  fifty  dollars 
($1,750)  toward  the  establishment  and  maintenance  of  a  Pro- 
fessorship of  Secondary  Education. 

Instructorship  of  Spanish  and  South  American  Affairs. — 
The  University  gratefully  acknowledges  the  gift  from  the  Car- 
negie "Foundation  for  International  Peace  of  nine  hundred 
dollars  ($900),  used  in  securing  the  services  of  a  teacher  of 
Spanish  and  of  "South  American  Affairs"  in  the  Summer 
School,  sessions  of  1915,  1916,  and  of  1917. 

Instructorship^  of  Bird-Study. — This  opportunity  is  taken 
of  thanking  the  National  Association  of  Audubon  Societies 
for  making  it  possible  to  offer  a  course  in  Bird-Study  dur- 
ing the  1915-1917  sessions  of  the  Summer  School. 

Scholarships. — No  method  of  contributing  to  the  spread  of 
higher  education  is  wiser  or  more  beneficent  than  to  give 
a  worthy  and  ambitious  young  man  the  opportunity  of  avail- 
ing himself  of  the  advantages  offered  by  his  state  university. 
The  establishment  of  several  scholarships  is  gratefully 
acknowledged.  A  list  of  these  and  the  names  of  the  donors 
will  be  found  on  pages  32  and  33. 


HISTORY  13 


GENERAL  INFORMATION 


HISTORY 


Beginning  with  its  territorial  days  Florida  has  always 
manifested  interest  in  higher  education,  and  with  this  in 
mind  has  formulated  many  plans  and  established  many  insti- 
tutions. As  early  as  1824  the  foundation  of  a  university  was 
discussed  by  the  Legislative  Council.  In  1836  trustees  for 
a  proposed  university  were  named,  but  these  seem  to  have 
accomplished  nothing.     (Memoirs  of  Florida,  1,168.) 

Upon  its  admission  to  the  Union  in  1845,  the  State  was 
granted  by  the  general  government  nearly  a  hundred  thou- 
sand acres  of  land,  the  proceeds  from  which  were  to  be  used 
to  establish  two  seminaries,  one  east  and  one  west  of  the 
Suwannee  River.  This  led  to  the  foundation  at  Ocala  in  1852 
of  the  East  Florida  Seminary  and  of  the  West  Florida  Semi- 
nary, at  Tallahassee,  in  1856.  The  former  of  these  institutions 
was,  however,  removed  to  Gainesville  in  1866.  The  State 
Constitution  of  1868  contained  provisions  for  establishing 
and  maintaining  a  university  (Art.  VIII,  Sec.  2),  pursuant 
to  which  the  Legislature  passed  the  next  year  "An  Act  to 
Establish  a  Uniform  System  of  Common  Schools  and  a 
University."  The  salient  features  of  this  Act  show  high  ideals 
and  purposes  and  would  be  a  credit  to  any  state.  Other  at- 
tempts to  establish  a  university  were  made  in  1883  by  the 
State  Board  of  Education  and  in  1885  by  the  Legislature. 
Furthermore,  the  State  Constitution,  adopted  later  in  the 
year  1885,  expressly  permitted  special  legislation  with  regard 
to  a  university. 

Meanwhile,  in  1870,  the  Legislature  had,  in  accordance 
with  the  terms  of  the  "Land-Grant  College"  Act  of  Congress 
of  1862,  passed  "An  Act  to  Establish  the  Florida  Agricul- 
tural College."  An  Act  supplementary  to  this  was  passed  in 
1872,  and  the  State  received  from  the  general  government 
ninety  thousand  acres  of  land,  the  proceeds  from  which  were 
to  be  used  in  support  of  the  proposed  college.  A  site  for 
the  college  was  selected  in  1873  and  again  in  1875.  No  edu- 
cational work  having  been  accomplished  in  the  "temporary 


14  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

college  edifice"  at  its  second  location,  the  trustees  appointed 
a  committee  in  1878  to  decide  upon  a  more  suitable  situation. 
Not  until  1883  was  the  third  site  selected — this  time,  Lake 
City.  Here  in  the  autumn  of  1884  the  work  of  instruction  was 
finally  begun.  An  attempt  was  made  in  1886  by  this  insti- 
tution to  have  its  name  changed  to  the  "University  of  Flor- 
ida," a  title  it  finally  secured  by  the  Legislative  Act  of  1903. 
Before  this,  in  1887,  the  Florida  Agricultural  Experiment 
Station  had,  in  accordance  with  the  terms  of  the  Hatch  Act, 
been  established  as  one  of  its  departments  and  three  years 
later  the  provisions  of  the  Morrill  Act  provided  a  substantial 
increase  in  its  annual  income. 

During  these  years,  in  addition  to  the  three  already  men- 
tioned, three  other  institutions  of  higher  education,  all  de- 
pending upon  the  State  for  support,  had  come  one  by  one 
into  existence.  These  were  the  Normal  School  at  DeFuniak 
Springs,  the  South  Florida  College  at  Bartow,  and  the  Agri- 
cultural Institute  in  Osceola  County.  In  1905,  however,  in- 
asmuch as  these  six  institutions  had  failed  to  make  satis- 
factory differentiation  among  themselves  and  to  separate  their 
work  sufficiently  from  that  of  the  high  schools  of  the  State, 
and  inasmuch  as  the  cost  of  maintaining  all  seemed  dispro- 
portionate to  the  results  obtained,  the  Legislature  passed  the 
"Buckman  Act,"  the  practical  effect  of  which  was  to  merge 
the  six  into  the  "Florida  Female  College,"  at  Tallahassee, 
and  the  "University  of  the  State  of  Florida."  Both  these 
institutions  began  their  scholastic  work  in  September,  1905. 
In  1909  an  Act  of  the  Legislature  changed  the  name  of  the 
one  to  the  "Florida  State  College  for  Women,"  of  the  other 
to  the  "University  of  Florida." 

During  the  first  session  of  the  University  a  distinct  Nor- 
mal School,  which  included  two  years  of  Sub-Freshman  grade, 
was  maintained.  In  addition  to  this,  instruction  was  given 
in  agriculture  and  in  engineering,  as  well  as  in  the  usual  col- 
legiate branches.  Candidates  for  admission  to  the  Freshman 
class  must  have  finished  the  eleventh  grade  of  a  high  school. 
The  Agricultural  Experiment  Station  was  a  separate  division, 
altho  members  of  its  Staff  gave  instruction  to  the  students 
and  the  President  of  the  University  acted  as  its  Director.  The 
next  year  the  Staff  of  the  Agricultural  Experiment  Station 
were  required  to  devote  their  time  exclusively  to  Station

activities,  and  Mr.  P.  H.  Rolfs  was  elected  Director.  The  Nor- 
mal School  was  abolished  and  instruction  in  pedagogy  was 
transferred  to  the  University  proper.  Two  years  of  Sub- 
Freshman  work  were,  however,  still  offered. 

Upon  the  election  in  1909  of  Dr.  A.  A.  Murphree  to  the 
presidency,  steps  were  taken  to  reorganize  the  University. 
The  present  organization  dates  from  1910.  The  College  of 
Law  was  added  in  1909  and  the  departments  offering  instruc- 
tion mainly  to  normal  students  were  organized  into  a  college 
in  1912.  In  1913  the  present  entrance  requirements  went 
into  effect.  The  same  year  a  Summer  School  was  established 
at  the  University  by  Act  of  the  Legislature  and  the  Farmers' 
Institute  Work  of  the  University  and  the  Cooperative  Demon- 
stration Work  for  Florida  of  the  United  States  Department 
of  Agriculture  were  combined.  On  July  1,  1915,  all  the  agri- 
cultural activities  of  the  University  were  placed  under  the 
direction  of  the  Dean  of  the  College  of  Agriculture. 

LOCATION 

On  the  6th  day  of  July,  1905,  acting  under  powers  con- 
fered  by  the  Buckman  Act,  the  State  Board  of  Education  and 
the  Board  of  Control,  in  joint  session,  selected  Gainesville  as 
the  location  for  the  University.  During  the  scholastic  year 
of  1905-06,  it  was  found  necessary  to  carry  on  the  work  of 
the  University  at  Lake  City.  Since  the  summer  of  1906  the 
institution  has  occupied  its  present  site. 

The  advantages  that  Gainesville  presents  as  the  seat  of 
the  University  are  numerous.  It  is  centrally  located  and  easy 
of  access.  It  has  well-paved,  lighted,  and  shaded  streets,  an 
exceptionally  pure  water  supply,  and  a  good  sewerage  sys- 
tem. The  citizens  are  energetic,  progressive,  and  hospitable. 
The  moral  atmosphere  is  wholesome  and  for  years  the  sale 
of  intoxicants  has  been  prohibited  by  law.  The  leading  re- 
ligious denominations  have  attractive  places  of  worship. 

INCOME 

The  annual  income  of  the  University,  apart  from  Legisla- 
tive appropriations,  is  derived  principally  from  the  following 
Federal  grants:  (a)  The  "East  Florida  Seminary  Fund," 
amounting  to  about  two  thousand  dollars  ($2,000)  ;  (b)  the 
"Agricultural  College  Fund"  bonds,  yielding  about  seventy- 


16  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

seven  hundred  dollars  ($7,700)  ;  (c)  one-half  of  the  "Morrill 
Fund,"  amounting  to  twelve  thousand  five  hundred  dollars 
($12,500)  ;  (d)  one-half  of  the  "Nelson  fund,"  yielding  twelve 
thousand  five  hundred  dollars  ($12,500).  The  total  income 
thus  derived  amounts  to  thirty-four  thousand  seven  hundred 
dollars  ($34,700). 

For  the  support  of  the  Agricultural  Experiment  Station 
the  Federal  government  makes  two  annual  grants:  (a)  the 
"Hatch  Fund"  and  (b)  the  "Adams  Fund."  Each  of  these 
amounts  to  fifteen  thousand  dollars  ($15,000).

GROUNDS  AND  BUILDINGS 

The  University  occupies  a  tract  of  six  hundred  and  four 
acres,  situated  in  the  western  extremity  of  Gainesville.  Ninety 
acres  of  this  tract  are  devoted  to  campus,  drill-grounds,  and 
athletic  fields;  the  remainder  is  used  by  the  College  of  Agri- 
culture. 

The  University  is  one  of  the  few  institutions  in  the  United 
States  that  made  plans  before  laying  the  foundation  of  a  single 
building  for  all  future  development  of  the  campus,  as  far  as 
this  could  be  foreseen.  Consequently  the  campus  presents  an 
harmonious  appearance.  The  liberality  of  the  State  has  per- 
mitted the  erection  of  buildings  as  fast  as  they  were  needed. 
Twelve  have  already  been  constructed,  all  of  which  are  lighted 
with  electricity,  supplied  with  city  water,  and  furnished  with 
modern  improvements.    These  buildings  are: 

The  two  Dormitories,  Thomas  Hall  and  Buckman  Hall, 
brick  and  concrete  structures,  three  stories  in  height,  sixty  feet

LIBRARY 

The  general  Library  contains  about  20,000  volumes.  Ad- 
ditional books  are  purchased  ^s  fast  as  funds  are  available. 
An  effort  is  being  made  to  place  on  the  shelves  all  books  ex- 
tant relating  to  Florida  history. 

The  books  are  catalogued  and  shelved  according  to  the 
Dewey  system,  making  them  readily  available  for  reference. 
Students  are  encouraged  to  use  the  card  catalogs,  which  are 
arranged  alphabetically,  both  according  to  authors  and  to 
subjects,  and  by  free  access  to  the  stacks  to  become  familiar 
with  the  books  themselves.  The  librarian  or  an  assistant 
is  always  in  attendance  to  explain  the  arrangement  of  books 
and  to  give  aid  in  reference  work.  A  taste  for  literature 
and  information  is  being  developed  in  many  students  who, 
before  entering  the  University,  have  not  had  access  to  a  good 
library. 

As  a  designated  depository  of  Federal  documents,  the 
Library  receives  each  year  several  hundred  volumes  of  valu- 
able government  publications.  Files  are  kept  of  all  Florida 
State  publications  and  of  the  bulletins  and  reports  of  the 
Agricultural  Experiment  Stations  thruout  the  Union. 

In  the  reading  room  are  one  hundred  and  thirty  of  the  best 
general  and  technical  periodicals.  The  back  numbers  of  these 
are  bound  and  kept  on  file  and  the  early  volumes  purchased 
whenever  they  can  be  obtained  and  funds  permit.  Here  also 
are  received  the  leading  newspapers  of  the  State.  County  pa- 
pers are  added  to  the  list  at  the  request  of  students. 

The  technical  departments  possess  special  libraries,  housed

of  the  University  and  the  Deans  of  the  several  colleges  form 
a  council  of  administration,  with  the  following  functions:  To 
lay  out  new  lines  of  work,  inaugurate  new  enterprises  in 
general,  and  to  prepare  the  annual  budget;  and  to  act  as  the 
judicial  body  of  the  General  Faculty  on  cases  of  general  dis- 
cipline not  under  the  authority  of  the  colleges,  on  new  courses 
of  study  and  changes  in  existing  courses,  bringing  these  mat- 
ters before  the  Board  of  Control,  and  on  questions  of  college 
action  referred  to  it  by  any  member  of  the  General  Faculty. 

Faculties. — The  General  Faculty  of  the  University  in- 
cludes all  persons  engaged  in  the  work  of  instruction  in  the 
University,  except  laboratory  assistants  and  undergraduate 
assistants  to  the  professors.  Under  the  leadership  of  the 
President,  it  forms  the  governing  body  in  all  general  matters 
of  instruction  and  discipline. 

The  Faculty  of  a  college  consists  of  those  members  of  the 
General  Faculty  who  give  instruction  in  it.  Under  the  lead- 
ership of  its  Dean,  it  forms  the  governing  body  in  matters 
of  instruction  and  discipline  in  its  college.

REGULATIONS 

Supervision. — An  Officer  in  Charge,  occupying  quarters 
in  one  of  the  dormitories,  has  immediate  supervision  of  the 
general  life  of  the  student-body. 

Offenses  Against  Good  Conduct. — Any  offense  against 
good  conduct,  in  the  ordinary  meaning  of  the  word,  renders 
a  student  liable  to  discipline,  whether  or  not  a  formal  rule 
against  the  offense  has  been  published. 

The  following  offenses  will  be  treated  with  special  sever- 
ity: Disrespect  to  an  officer  of  the  University;  wanton  de- 
struction of  property;  gambling;  drunkenness;  having  intoxi- 
cating liquors  or  revolvers  in  possession  on  the  University 
grounds. 

The  use  of  intoxicating  liquors  at  student  functions  of  any 
kind,  by  student  groups,  or  by  individual  students,  either  on 
or  off  the  campus,  is  strictly  forbidden. 

Hazing. — No  form  of  hazing  will  be  tolerated  in  the  Uni- 
versity and  no  student  will  be  assigned  to  a  room  in  a  dormi- 
tory until  he  has  been  matriculated  and  has  signed  the  fol- 
lowing pledge: 

"/  hereby  promise  upon  my  word  of  honor,  without  any 
mental  reservation  whatsoever,  to  refrain  from  all  forms  of 
hazing  while  I  am  connected  with  the  University  of  Florida." 

Absences. — A  student  who  accumulates  ten  unexcused  ab- 
sences from  classes,  or  three  unexcused  absences  from  drill, 
will  be  given  a  severe  reprimand  and  parent  or  guardian  will 
be  notified.  Two  additional  unexcused  absences  will  cause 
the  student  to  be  dismissed  from  the  University.  Ten  unex- 
cused absences  from  Chapel  will  subject  all  students,  except 
Seniors  and  those  in  the  College  of  Law  to  the  same  penalty. 

Attendance  Upon  Duties. — A  student  who,  without  good 
cause,  persistently  absents  himself  from  his  University  duties, 
is,  after  due  warning,  dishonorably  dismissed  for  the  re- 
mainder of  the  academic  year.  A  student  who,  by  reason  of  ill 
health  or  outside  demands  upon  his  time,  finds  it  impossible  to 
give  regular  attention  to  his  University  duties,  is  requested  to 
withdraw;  but  such  request  does  not  in  any  way  reflect  upon 
his  good  standing. 

Delinquencies  in  University  duties  are  reported  to  the 
Registrar,  who  brings  them  to  the  attention  of  the  students

concerned  and  requires  a  prompt  explanation  to  be  made. 
Careful  records  of  all  delinquencies  are  kept. 

STUDIES 

Quantity  of  Work. — A  minimum  and  a  maximum  num- 
ber of  recitation  hours  (or  equivalent  time  in  laboratory 
courses)  per  week  are  prescribed  in  each  college  and  no 
student  may  take  fewer  than  the  minimum  or  more  than  the 
maximum,  except  by  special  permission  of  the  Faculty  of  his 
college.  Not  counting  Military  Science,  these  numbers  are: 
In  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  and  in  the  College  of  Law, 
15  and  18;  in  the  College  of  Agriculture,  16  and  23;  in  the 
College  of  Engineering,  16  and  23;  and  in  the  Teachers  Col- 
lege, 15  and  19.  .        -    .-    . 

Two  hours  of  laboratory  ,w£)rJi*^r&co.osider^d  equivalent 
to  one  hour  of  recitat-on.     -  >''  »'    .,   , 

Conflicts. — Studies  must  be  so  chosen  as  not- to ,  conflict, 
as  shown  on  the. .printed  schedule^  f/)>*  the  year. 

AssiGNMENr-TO  CLASSES. — Every- student  must  appear- bye- 
fore  the  Dean  of  his  college  at  the  beginning  of  each  academic 
year  for  assignment  to  classes.  No  instructor  has,  except  as 
authorized  by  the  Dean  of  his  college,  authority  to  enroll  a 
student  in  any  course. 

Choice  of  Studies. — The  choice  as  to  which  one  of  the 
various  curricula  is  to  be  pursued  rests  with  the  individual 
student,  subject  to  considerations  of  proper  preparation;  but 
the  group  of  studies  selected  must  be  that  belonging  to  one  of 
the  regular  years  in  the  chosen  curriculum  exactly  as  an- 
nounced in  the  catalog,  unless  special  reasons  exist  for  de- 
viating from  this  arrangement.  A  student  will,  however,  be 
held  to  the  requirements  of  the  catalog  under  which  he  en- 
tered. 

Conditions. — A  student  who  is  prepared  to  take  up  most 
of  the  studies  of  a  certain  year  in  a  regular  curriculum,  but 
who  is  deficient  in  some  studies,  will  be  permitted  to  proceed 
with  the  work  of  that  year  subject  to  the  condition  that  he 
make  up  the  studies  in  which  the  deficiency  occurs.  Provi- 
sion for  all  of  the  lower  studies  must  be  made  before  any  of 
the  higher  may  be  taken ;  in  the  event  of  conflicts  in  the  sched- 
ule or  of  excessive  quantity  of  work,  higher  studies  must  give 
way  to  lower. 


26  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

Extra  Studies. — By  special  permission  from  the  Dean  of 
his  college,  a  student  may  take  extra  studies  in  addition  to 
those  prescribed,  provided  this  can  be  done  without  conflict- 
ing with  a  regular  study  or  exceeding  the  maximum  number 
of  hours  of  study.  Such  permission  is  not,  as  a  rule,  granted 
to  any  conditioned  student;  and  it  may  be  withdrawn  from 
any  student  in  the  event  of  his  failure  in  any  of  the  regular 
studies. 

Special  Students. — Students  desiring  to  take  special 
courses  will  be  allowed  to  take  those  classes  for  which  they 
may  be  prepared.  Such  students  are  subject  to  all  the  laws 
and  regulations  of  the  University.  Special  courses  do  not 
lead  to  a  degree. 

The  University  permits  special  xjourses  to  be  taken  solely 
in  order  to.  provide  for  the  occasion^  exceptional  requirements 
of  individual  students.  Abuse  of  this  ^ri-zilege,  for  the  sake 
of  av.oijd'ng  regular,  studies  thj^t  may  be  dist^tstef ul,  cannot  be 
toleiated.  Accordili&l-y,  no  n:iinor  is  permitted  to  enter  as  a 
special  student  except  upon  written  request  of  his  parent  or 
guardian.  Minor  special  students  must,  except  as  provided 
for  in  the  College  of  Agriculture,  offer  fourteen  units  for 
admission. 

Adult  Specials. — Persons  21  years  of  age  or  over  who  can- 
not offer  all  the  entrance  requirements,  but  give  evidence  of 
serious  purpose  and  of  ability  to  profit  by  the  courses  they 
may  take,  may,  under  exceptional  circumstances,  be  admitted 
as  "Adult  Specials."  Such  students  appear  before  the  Com- 
mittee on  Admission  for  enrollment. 

When  Special  Students  make  up  their  deficiencies  they 
may  become  regular  students  and  candidates  for  a  degree. 

Classification  of  Irregular  Students, — A  student  is 
deemed  to  belong  to  that  class  in  which  the  majority  of  his 
hours  of  work  lies.  But  a  special  student  is  not  considered  as 
belonging  to  any  of  the  regular  classes. 

Changes  in  Studies. — After  a  student  is  registered,  he 
is  not  permitted  to  discontinue  any  class  or  to  begin  any 
additional  one,  without  written  permission  from  the  Dean  of 
his  college,  which  must  be  shown  to  the  instructor  involved. 
If  the  student  has  been  registered  for  two  weeks,  he  will  not 
be  permitted  to  make  any  such  change,  except  at  the  be- 


GOVERNMENT  27 

ginning  of  the  second  semester,  without  the  payment  of  a 
fee  of  two  dollars  ($2.00) . 

Grades  and  Reports. — Each  instructor  keeps  a  record  of 
the  quality  of  work  done  in  his  classes  and  monthly  assigns 
each  student  a  grade,  on  the  scale  of  100.  This  grade  is 
reported  to  the  Registrar  for  permanent  record  and  for  entry 
upon  a  monthly  report  to  the  student's  parent  or  guardian. 

If  the  monthly  grades  of  a  student  are  unsatisfactory,  he 
may  be  required  to  drop  some  of  his  studies  and  substitute 
those  of  a  lower  class,  or  he  may  be  required  to  withdraw  from 
the  University. 

Examinations. — Examinations  on  the  ground  covered 
are  held  at  the  end  of  each  semester. 

Failure  in  Studies. — A  final  grade  for  each  semester's 
work  is  assigned,  based  upon  the  examination  and  the  monthly 
grades.  If  this  grade  falls  below  75,  the  student  is  considered 
to  have  failed  and  may  proceed  only  subject  to  a  condition  in 
the  study  in  which  failure  has  occurred. 

Re-examinations. — A  student  who  has  failed  in  the  work 
of  a  semester  is  allowed,  in  case  his  grade  does  not  fall  below 
60,  to  make  up  the  condition  by  re-examination,  on  the  first 
Saturday  of  March  or  the  first  Saturday  of  October.  Only 
one  re-examination  in  any  subject  is  allowed;  in  case  of  failure 
to  pass  this,  the  student  must  repeat  the  semester's  work  in 
that  subject. 

Degrees. — The  special  requirements  for  the  various  de- 
grees offered  by  the  University  will  be  found  under  the  Gen- 
eral Statement  of  the  Graduate  School  and  of  each  of  the  five 
colleges.    The  following  regulations  apply  to  all  colleges: 

While  pursuing  studies  leading  to  a  degree  a  student  must 
be  registered  in  the  college  offering  that  degree. 

Two  degrees  of  the  same  rank,  as,  e.g.,  B.S.C.E.  and 
B.S.E.E.,  will  not  be  conferred  upon  the  same  individual,  un- 
less the  second  degree  to  be  conferred  represents  at  least  fif- 
teen hours  of  additional  work. 

ATHLETIC  teams,  MUSICAL  AND  OTHER  CLUBS 

Absences  on  Account  of  Athletics,  etc. — The  members 
of  regular  athletic  teams,  of  musical  and  of  other  student 
organizations,  together  with  necessary  substitutes  and  man- 
agers, are  permitted  to  be  absent  from  their  University  duties 


28  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

for  such  time,  not  to  exceed  nine  days  per  semester,  as  may 
be  necessary  to  take  part  in  games,  concerts,  etc.,  away  from 
Gainesville.  All  class-work  missed  on  account  of  such  trips 
must  be  made  up,  as  promptly  as  possible,  at  such  hours  as 
may  be  arranged  by  the  various  professors. 

Schedules. — Schedules  of  games,  concerts,  etc.,  must  be 
arranged  so  as  to  interfere  as  little  as  possible  with  Uni- 
versity duties.  Schedules  of  games  must  receive  the  approval 
of  the  Committee  on  Athletics;  schedules  of  concerts,  of  dra- 
matic entertainments,  etc.,  the  approval  of  the  Committee  on 
Student  Organizations. 

All  regular  games  will  be  played  under  the  rules  of  the 
Southern  Intercollegiate  Athletic  Association. 

Eligibility  to  Athletic  Teams,  Musical  Clubs,  etc. — 
Any  team  or  club  representing  the  University  must  be  com- 
posed exclusively  of  students  in  good  standing,  altho  the  Com- 
mittee on  Student  Organizations  has  the  power  to  waive  this 
regulation  in  the  case  of  dramatic  and  musical  organizations. 
Negligence  of  duties,  or  failure  in  studies,  excludes  a  student 
from  membership  in  all  such  organizations. 

No  student  is  permitted  to  play  on  any  regular  athletic 
team,  who,  in  the  opinion  of  the  University  physician,  is  not  in 
proper  physical  condition.  No  minor  student  is  permitted  to 
play,  if  his  parent  or  guardian  objects.  A  list  of  players  and 
substitutes  must  be  submitted  to  the  Committee  on  Athletics 
before  each  game  and  must  receive  its  approval. 

Finances. — Student  organizations  engaging  in  financial 
operations  must  publish  at  least  once  a  year  in  the  Alligator 
a  statement  of  their  receipts  and  expenditures. 

HONORS 

Phi  Kappa  Phi. — A  chapter  of  the  Society  of  Phi  Kappa 
Phi  was  established  at  the  University  during  the  spring  of 
1912.  To  be  eligible  for  membership  a  student  must  have 
been  in  attendance  at  the  University  for  at  least  three  sem- 
esters, have  been  guilty  of  no  serious  breaches  of  discipline, 
have  had  at  least  three  years  of  collegiate  training,  be  within 
one  year  of  finishing  a  course  leading  to  a  degree,  and  stand 
among  the  first  fourth  of  the  Senior  class  of  the  University. 
The  numerical  grade  which  must  be  attained  is  based  on  all 


EXPENSES  29 

college  work,  whether  done  here  or  elsewhere  for  which  the 
student  receives  credit  towards  a  degree. 

Medals. — Medals  are  offered  (1)  to  the  best  declaimer  in 
the  Freshman  and  Sophomore  classes;  (2)  for  the  best  orig- 
inal oration  by  a  member  of  the  Junior  class  of  any  college; 
(3)  for  the  best  original  oration  by  a  member  of  the  Senior 
class  of  any  college.  These  contests  are  settled  in  public  com- 
petition at  Commencement.  The  speakers  are  limited  to  four 
from  each  class  and  are  selected  by  the  Faculty. 

EXPENSES 

University  Charges. — Tuition. — A  tuition  fee  of  forty 
dollars  ($40.00)  per  year  is  charged  every  student  regis- 
tered in  the  College  of  Law.  In  the  other  colleges  a  student 
whose  legal  residence  is  in  Florida  is  subject  to  no  charge 
for  tuition ;  a  student  who  is  not  a  legal  resident  of  the  State 
is  required  to  pay  a  tuition  fee  of  twenty  dollars  ($20.00) 
per  year. 

Registration  and  Contingent  Fee. — This  fee  of  ten  dol- 
lars ($10.00)  per  year  is  charged  all  students,  except  one 
scholarship  student  from  each  county  in  Florida  and  all  gradu- 
ate'students  pursuing  work  leading  to  a  higher  degree  than 
that  of  Bachelor.  These  two  classes  of  students  are  charged 
five  dollars  ($5.00). 

The  scholarships  referred  to  are  to  be  obtained  from 
County  Superintendents  of  Public  Instruction  and  must  be 
filed  with  the  auditor  on  the  day  of  registration. 

An  additional  fee  of  two  dollars  ($2.00)  is  required  of 
students  who  enter  after  the  day  scheduled  for  registration. 

Damage  Deposit. — In  order  to  secure  the  University 
against  damage,  the  sum  of  five  dollars  ($5.00)  must  be  de- 
posited at  registration.  Damage  known  to  have  been  done 
by  any  student  will  be  charged  to  his  individual  account ;  other 
damages  will  be  prorated  among  the  students. 

At  the  end  of  the  scholastic  year  this  deposit,  less  the 
amount  deducted,  will  be  returned  to  the  student,  provided 
that  no  book  nor  other  part  of  the  University  equipment  still 
remains  in  his  possession.  Orders  for  the  disbursement  of 
sums  remaining  to  the  credit  of  individual  students  must  be 
presented  in  person,  and  will  not  be  recognized  by  the  audi- 
tor until  after  the  close  of  the  second  semester. 


30  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

Infirmary  Fee. — A  student  whose  parent  or  guardian  does 
not  reside  in  Gainesville,  is  charged  an  infirmary  fee  of  three 
dollars  ($3.00),  the  proceeds  of  which  go  towards  defraying 
the  salary  of  a  resident  nurse  and  for  medicines.  This  secures 
for  the  student,  in  case  of  illness,  the  privilege  of  a  bed  in 
the  infirmary  (which  occupies  Section  A  of  Thomas  Hall)  and 
the  services  of  the  nurse. 

Board  and  Lodging. — Board,  lodging,  and  janitor  service 
will  be  furnished  by  the  University  at  a  cost  of  seventy  dol- 
lars ($70.00)  for  the  first  semester,  not  including  the  Christ- 
mas vacation,  and  seventy-five  dollars  ($75.00)  for  the  sec- 
ond semester.*  In  order  to  get  advantage  of  this  rate,  pay- 
ment must  be  made  at  the  beginning  of  each  semester.  In 
very  exceptional  cases  arrangements  may  be  made  to  pay  in 
three  equal  instalments.  No  refund  will  be  made  for  less  than 
a  month's  absence.  Board  and  lodging  when  not  engaged  by 
the  semester  will  be  furnished  at  twenty  dollars  ($20.00)  per 
month. 

Under  Board  and  Lodging  are  included  meals  in  the  com- 
mons and  room  (with  heat,  light,  janitor  service,  and  access 
to  a  bathroom),  furnished  as  stated  below.  The  doors  of  the 
rooms  are  provided  with  Yale  locks.  A  deposit  of  50  cents  is 
required  for  each  key,  which  will  be  returned  when  the  key 
is  surrendered.  Janitor  service  includes  the  care  of  rooms  by 
maids,  under  the  supervision  of  a  competent  housekeeper. 

Lodging  without  Board. — Students  sharing  a  room  in  the 
dormitories,  but  not  taking  meals  in  the  commons,  will  be 
charged  $5.00  each  per  month  for  lodging.  For  sole  use  of 
a  room  the  charge  will  be  $10.00  per  month. 

Board  without  Lodging. — Board  without  lodging  will  be 
furnished  at  the  rate  of  $16.00  per  calendar  month,  payable 
in  advance.    No  part  of  this  sum  will  be  refunded. 

Furniture. — All  rooms  are  partly  furnished  and  adjoin 
bathrooms  equipt  with  marble  basin  and  shower  with  both 
hot  and  cold  water.  The  furniture  consists  of  two  iron  bed- 
steads and  mattresses,  chiffonier  or  bureau,  table,  wash- 
stand,  and  chairs.  The  students  are  required  to  provide  pil- 
lows, bedding,  half -curtains,  and  mosquito-bar. 


*0n  account  of  the  increase  in  prices  of  food  and  labor,  it  has  been  found 
necessary  to  add  approximately  ten  per  cent,  to  the  previous  charge 
for  board  and  lodging. 


EXPENSES  31 

Uniform. — Students  in  the  military  department  are  re- 
quired to  provide  themselves  with  the  prescribed  uniform, 
which  is  furnished  under  contract.  The  suit  is  of  Charlottes- 
ville cadet  grey,  of  good  quality,  and  inexpensive.  A  cap  of 
dark-blue  cloth  and  two  pairs  of  white  duck  trousers  are  also 
required.  This  uniform  is  neat  and  serviceable  and  may  be 
worn  at  all  times.    The  total  cost  is  about  $25.00. 

Books. — The  cost  of  books  depends  largely  upon  the  course 
taken,  but  is,  in  no  case,  a  large  item  of  expense,  tho  in  the 
higher  classes  the  student  is  encouraged  to  acquire  a  few 
works  of  permanent  value. 

Summary. — The  following  statement  summarizes  the  min- 
imum expenses  of  a  Florida  student  registered  in  any  college 
save  in  that  of  Law : 

Tuition   $000.00 

Registration  and  Contingent  Fee 10.00 

Damage   Deposit   5.00 

Infirmary  Fee  3.00 

Board  and  Lodging  145.00 

Uniform  (about)  25.00 

Books    (about)    - 10.00 

Incidentals    (laundry,  athletic,  literary  society, 

etc.,  dues),  about  20.00 

$218.00 

Students  who  are  exempt  from  buying  uniforms  will  de- 
duct $17.00  from  the  above  table ;  students  from  other  States 
will  add  a  tuition  fee  of  $20.00. 

Remittances. — All  remittances  should  he  made  to  the 
Auditor,  University  of  Florida,  Gainesville,  Fla. 

Opportunities  for  Earning  Expenses. — It  is  often  pos- 
sible for  a  student  to  earn  a  part  of  his  expenses  by  work- 
ing during  hours  not  required  for  his  University  duties. 

A  few  students  are  employed  as  waiters  in  the  commons, 
as  janitors,  and  in  some  other  capacities.  Such  employ- 
ment is  not,  as  a  rule,  given  to  a  student  unless  he  is  other- 
wise financially  unable  to  attend  the  University,  nor  is  it  given 
to  one  who  fails  in  any  study. 

While  the  employment  of  students  is  designed  to  assist 
those  in  need  of  funds,  the  payment  for  their  services  is  in 
no  sense  a  charity.  The  rate  of  remuneration  is  no  higher 
and  the  standard  of  service  demanded  is  no  lower  than 
would  be  the  case  if  the  work  were  done  by  others  than 
students.    If  a  student  employee  fails  to  give  satisfaction,  he 


32  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

is  promptly  discharged.  Otherwise  he  is  continued  in  his 
position  as  long  as  he  cares  to  hold  it,  provided  it  is  not 
found  to  interfere  with  reasonable  success  in  his  studies  and 
provided  he  does  riot  commit  any  breach  of  good  conduct. 

Great  credit  is  due  those  willing  to  make  the  necessary 
sacrifices,  nevertheless  students  are  advised  not  to  undertake 
to  earn  money  while  pursuing  their  studies,  unless  such 
action  is  unavoidable.  Proper  attention  to  studies  makes 
sufficient  demand  upon  the  time  and  energy  of  a  student, 
without  the  burden  of  outside  duties ;  such  time  as  the  studies 
leave  free  can  be  spent  more  profitably  in  recreation. 

FELLOWSHIPS,  SCHOLARSHIPS,  AND  LOAN  FUND 

Fellowships. — In  order  to  encourage  young  teachers  to 
prepare  themselves  further  for  their  work  by  taking  graduate 
courses  in  Education,  three  Teaching  Fellowships,  each  pay- 
ing $200.00  annually,  have  been  established. 

Application  for  a  fellowship  must  be  made  in  writing  to 
the  Dean  of  the  Teachers  College  or  to  the  President  of  the

STUDENT  ORGANIZATIONS  AND  PUBLICATIONS 

Y.  M.  C.  A.— The  Y.  M.  C.  A.  of  the  University  seeks  to 
create  a  Christian  atmosphere,  to  train  men  for  aggressive 
Christian  service,  and  to  cooperate  in  Christian  work  with  all 
the  local  churches. 

u.  /.— 3 


34  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

Two  meetings  are  held  each  week :  on  Wednesday  night  a 
prayer  meeting  conducted  by  students;  on  Sunday  afternoon 
a  more  general  meeting  at  which  some  member  of  the  Faculty, 
minister  of  the  city,  or  distinguished  Christian  worker  makes 
an  address.  Classes  for  Bible  and  Mission  study  are  also  con- 
ducted under  the  auspices  of  the  Association. 

Students,  on  entering  the  University,  should  by  all  means 
become  identified  with  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  and  parents  should 
counsel  and  encourage  them  to  do  so.  A  note  of  introduction 
to  the  president  of  the  organization  will  cause  special  atten- 
tion to  be  given  a  new  student. 

Literary  and  Scientific  Societies. — See  General  State- 
ment of  each  of  the  five  colleges  of  the  University. 

Orchestra. — The  orchestra  plays  for  Chapel  exercises 
and  furnishes  special  music  on  Fridays.  It  also  accompanies 
the  University  Minstrels  on  its  annual  tour. 

Glee  and  Mandolin  Clubs. — The  Glee  Club  develops 
ability  in  part-singing  and  gives  much  pleasure  by  adding 
variety  to  the  Friday  morning  exercises.  The  Mandolin  Club, 
composed  of  mandolins,  guitars,  and  similar  instruments, 
while  complete  in  itself,  joins  the  Glee  Club  in  its  annual  tour. 

Military  Band. — The  Military  Band  adds  much  to  the 
effectiveness  of  parades.  It  makes  several  excursions  during 
the  year  to  neighboring  towns,  and  has  an  annual  trip  of 
nearly  a  week  with  the  University  Minstrels. 

Publications  —  Beginning  with  the  session  of  1909-10 
each  Senior  class  has  published  an  illustrated  annual,  known 
as  the  "Seminole." 

The  "Florida  Alligator"  is  a  weekly  newspaper  owned 
and  controlled  by  the  student-body.  Its  editorial  articles  dis- 
cuss University  problems  from  the  viewpoint  of  the  under- 
graduates. It  seeks  the  support  of  the  alumni,  who  find  in  it 
the  best  means  of  keeping  in  touch  with  the  University. 

ADMISSION 

Terms. — A  candidate  for  admission  must  present,  along 
with  his  scholastic  record,  a  certificate  of  good  moral  char- 
acter, and,  if  he  be  from  another  college  or  university,  the 
certificate  must  show  that  he  was  honorably  discharged. 

No  candidate  under  16  (18  in  the  College  of  Law)  years 
of  age  will  be  admitted. 


ADMISSION  35 

Methods. — There  are  two  methods  of  gaining  admission: 

(1)  Bij  Certificate. — The  University  will  accept  certifi- 
cates from  the  approved  Senior  high  schools  of  Florida ;  from 
accredited  academies  and  preparatory  schools  of  the  State; 
and  from  any  secondary  school  of  another  state  which  is 
accredited  by  its  state  university. 

The  certificate  must  be  officially  signed  by  the  principal  of 
the  school  attended.  It  must  state  in  detail  the  work  of  prep- 
aration and,  in  the  case  of  Florida  high  schools,  that  the  course 
thru  the  twelfth  grade  has  been  satisfactorily  completed. 

Blank  certificates,  conveniently  arranged  for  the  desired 
data,  will  be  sent  to  all  high-school  principals  and,  upon  ap- 
plication, to  prospective  students. 

(2)  Bij  Examination. — Candidates  not  admitted  by  cer- 
tificate will  be  required  to  stand  written  examinations  upon 
the  entrance  subjects.  For  dates  of  these  examinations,  see 
University  Calendar,  page  3. 

Requirements.  —  "Entrance  Units."  —  The  requirements 
for  admission  are  measured  in  "Entrance  Units,"  based  upon 
the  curriculum  of  the  high  schools  of  Florida.  A  unit  repre- 
sents a  course  of  study  pursued  thruout  the  school  year  with 
five  recitation  periods  (two  laboratory  periods  being  counted 
as  one  recitation  period)  of  at  least  forty-five  minutes  each 
per  week,  four  courses  being  taken  during  each  of  the  four 
years.  Thus  the  curriculum  of  the  standard  Senior  high 
school  of  F'lorida  is  equivalent  to  sixteen  units. 

Number  of  Units. — Admission  to  the  Freshman  class  will 
be  granted  to  candidates  who  present  credentials  showing  that 
they  have  been  graduated  from  a  standard  Senior  high  school 
with  a  four-year  curriculum  based  upon  an  eight-year  gram- 
mar-school course,  or  who  present  evidence  of  having  com- 
pleted courses  amounting  to  sixteen  units  of  preparatory  work. 

In  no  case  will  credit  for  more  than  sixteen  units  be  given 
for  work  done  at  a  high  school. 

These  requirements  are  equal  to  fifteen  "Carnegie  Foun- 
dation" or  "National  Educational  Association"  units. 

Distribution  of  Units — Of  the  units  required  for  admission, 
ten  (eight  in  the  College  of  Law)  are  specified  and  six  (eight 
in  the  College  of  Law)  are  elective.  Eight  of  the  specified 
units  are  required  in  common  by  all  the  colleges  of  the  Uni- 
versity, while  the  remaining  two  vary.

paragraphs.

and  will  call  for  only  a  general  knowledge  of  the  substance  of 
the  books.  The  candidate  must  also  be  prepared  to  answer

GRADUATE  SCHOOL  43 


GRADUATE  SCHOOL 

Organization. — This  School  is  under  the  direction  of  the 
Committee  on  Graduate  Studies,  which  consists  of  Professors 
Anderson,  Farr,  Rolfs,  Benton,  Trusler,  and  Cox. 

Graduate  students  should  register  with  the  Chairman  of 
this  Committee. 

Degrees  Offered. — The  University  is  not  in  a  position  at 
present  to  lay  any  great  stress  upon  graduate  work.  Its 
courses  are  mainly  of  college  grade  and  will  doubtless  remain 
so  for  many  years  to  come.  For  the  benefit,  however,  of  those 
who  wish  to  carry  their  studies  further,  courses  are  offered 
leading  to  the  degrees  of  Master  of  Arts,  Master  of  Arts  in 
Education,  Master  of  Science,  Master  of  Science  in  Agricul- 
ture, and  Master  of  Science  in  Education. 

Prerequisite  Degrees. — Candidates  for  the  Master's  de- 
gree must  possess  the  Bachelor's  degree  of  this  institution  or 
of  one  of  like  standing. 

Applications. — Candidates  for  the  Master's  degree  must 
present  to  the  Chairman  of  the  Committee  on  Graduate  Studies 
a  written  application  for  the  degree  not  later  than  the  first  of 
November  of  the  scholastic  year  in  which  the  degree  is  de- 
sired. This  application  must  name  the  major  or  minor  sub- 
jects offered  for  the  degree  and  must  contain  the  signed  ap- 
proval of  the  heads  of  the  departments  concerned. 

When  a  candidate  offers  as  a  part  of  his  work  any  course 
not  sufficiently  described  in  the  catalog,  he  must  include  in  his 
application  an  outline  or  description  of  that  course. 

Time  Required. — The  student  must  spend  at  least  one  en- 
tire academic  year  in  residence  at  the  University  as  a  graduate 
student,  devoting  his  full  time  to  the  pursuit  of  his  studies. 

Work  Required. — The  work  is  twelve  hours  per  week.  Six 
hours  of  this  work  must  be  in  one  subject  (the  major)  and  of  a 
higher  grade  than  any  course  offered  for  undergraduate  stu- 
dents in  that  subject.  The  other  six  hours  (the  minor  or  mi- 
nors) are  to  be  determined  and  distributed  by  the  professor 
in  charge  of  the  department  in  which  the  major  subject  is  se- 
lected. No  course  designed  primarily  for  students  of  a  lower 
grade  than  the  Junior  class  will  be  acceptable  as  a  minor. 


44  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

While  the  major  course  is  six  hours,  these  hours  are  not  the 
same  as  in  undergraduate  work,  for  in  general  the  major  work 
will  require  at  least  two-thirds  of  the  student's  time. 

To  obtain  credit  for  a  minor  the  student  must  attain  a 
grade  of  not  less  than  eighty-five  per  cent. 

Dissertation. — It  is  customary  to  require  a  dissertation 
showing  original  research  and  independent  thinking  on  some 
subject  accepted  by  the  professor  under  whom  the  major  work 
is  taken,  but  this  requirement  may  be  waived  at  the  option  of 
the  professor,  subject  to  the  approval  of  the  Committee  on 
Graduate  Studies.  If  the  requirement  be  not  waived,  the  dis- 
sertation must  be  in  the  hands  of  the  committee  not  later  than 
two  weeks  before  Commencement  Day.

GENERAL  STATEMENT 

Aim  and  Scope. — The  tendency  of  universities  at  the  pres- 
ent time  seems  to  be  to  reach  out  their  arms  farther  and  far- 
ther into  the  domain  of  knowledge  and  to  become  more  and 
more  places  where  the  student  may  expect  to  be  able  to  acquire 
any  form  of  useful  knowledge  in  which  he  may  be  interested. 
In  the  center,  however,  there  is  still  found  the  College  of  Arts 
and  Sciences,  the  pulsating  heart,  as  it  were,  sending  its  vivi- 
fying streams  to  the  outermost  tips  of  the  institution. 

The  aim  of  the  college  is  to  prepare  for  life,  it  is  true,  but 
not  so  directly  and  immediately  as  do  the  professional  schools. 
It  is  a  longer,  but  a  better  road,  for  those  who  are  able  to  travel 
it,  to  distinction  and  ultimate  success  in  almost  any  calling. 
Especially  in  the  case  of  the  learned  professions,  it  is  becom- 
ing clearer  that  a  man  should  first  get  a  liberal  education,  if 
possible,  before  entering  upon  his  professional  studies. 

The  purpose  and  aim  of  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  is 
to  impart  culture  and  refinement,  to  train  the  mind  and 
strengthen  the  intellect,  to  build  up  ideals  and  establish  the 
character,  to  enlarge  the  vision,  to  ennoble  the  thoughts,  to  in- 
crease the  appreciation  of  the  beautiful  and  the  true,  to  add 
charm  to  life  and  piquancy  to  companionship,  to  make  the  man 
a  decent  fellow,  a  useful  citizen,  an  influential  member  of  so- 
ciety in  whatever  community  he  may  be  thrown,  in  whatever 
field  his  life-course  may  be  run. 

But  if  the  student  wishes  to  examine  the  practical  side  ex- 
clusively, he  will  find  that  there  is  also  something  practical  in 
all  these  courses.  For  instance,  they  are  all  valuable  for  him 
who  wishes  to  learn  to  teach  those  subjects.  Moreover,  the 
use  of  electives  gives  the  student  an  opportunity  to  specialize

in  some  branch  according  to  his  inclination  and  in  furtherance 
of  his  plans. 

Admission. — For  full  description  of  requirements  for  ad- 
mission and  of  unit  courses,  see  pages  34  to  41,  inclusive. 

Literary  Societies. — The  Literary  Societies  are  valuable 
adjuncts  to  the  educational  work  of  the  college.  They  are  con- 
ducted entirely  by  the  students  and  maintain  a  high  level  of 
endeavor.  The  members  obtain  much  practical  experience  in 
the  conduct  of  public  assemblies.  They  assimilate  knowledge 
of  parliamentary  law,  acquire  ease  and  grace  of  delivery,  learn 
to  argue  with  coolness  of  thought  and  courtesy  of  manner,  and 
are  trained  in  thinking  and  in  presenting  their  thoughts  clearly 
and  effectively  while  facing  an  audience.  All  students  are 
earnestly  advised  to  connect  themselves  with  one  of  these  so- 
cieties and  to  take  a  constant  and  active  part  in  its  work. 

Degrees. — The  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences  offers  courses 
leading  to  the  degrees  of  Bachelor  of  Arts  (A.B.)  and  Bach- 
elor of  Science  (B.S.). 

Subjects  of  Study. — The  subjects  of  study  leading  to- 
wards the  degrees  offered  by  the  College  of  Arts  and  Sciences 
are  divided  into  the  following  four  groups : 

7.  II.  III.  IV. 

Agriculture, 
I  and  II.  German,  Economics,  Astronomy, 

Bacteriology, 
Biology, 
Botany, 
Chemistry, 
Drawing, 

Descriptive    Geom- 
etry, 
Geology, 
Mathematics, 
Mechanics, 
Military  Science 

III  and  IV, 
Physics, 
Physiology, 
Surveying, 
Zoology. 

Requirements  for  Degrees. — For  each  of  the  degrees  of- 
fered, A.B.  and  B.S.,  a  total  of  sixty-two  hours  must  be  taken, 
of  which  two  must  be  in  Group  I. 

For  the  A.B.  degree  fifteen  hours  must  be  taken  in  Groups 
II  and  III  and  twelve  hours  from  Group  IV ;  three  hours  may 
be  chosen  from  any  group;  the  remaining  fifteen  hours  (in-

eluding  the  "major")  must  be  chosen  from  Groups  II,  III  and 
(pure)  Mathematics,  altho  twelve  of  these  fifteen  hours  may 
be  taken  from  the  first  year  of  the  course  in  the  College  of  Law. 

For  the  degree  of  B.S.  twelve  hours  must  be  taken  from 
each  of  Groups  II  and  III,  twenty-four  (including  the  "ma- 
jor") from  Group  IV,  leaving  twelve  hours  to  be  chosen  from 
the  subjects  mentioned  above,  or  from  the  first  year  of  the 
course  in  the  College  of  Law. 

The  "major"  must  consist  of  nine  hours  in  one  department 
(not  counting  the  Freshman  work)  and  must  be  approved  by 
the  head  of  the  department  chosen.  The  choice  of  electives 
must  meet  with  the  approval  of  the  Dean. 

The  Bachelor's  degree  in  Arts  or  Sciences  will  not  be  con- 
ferred upon  a  candidate  offering  twelve  hours  in  Law  until  he 
has  satisfactorily  completed  the  second  year  of  the  course  in 
the  College  of  Law. 

Pre-Medical  Course. — Students  intending  to  study  medi- 
cine are  advised  to  take  the  regular  B.S.  course.  Inasmuch, 
however,  as  many  students  are  unable  to  spend  four  years  on 
a  non-professional  course,  the  University  offers  a  Two-year 
Pre-Medical  Course.

DEPARTMENTS  OF  INSTRUCTION 

ANCIENT  LANGUAGES 

Professor  Anderson 

The  study  of  the  classics  contributes  largely  to  general  cul- 
ture. In  addition  to  the  recognized  and  peculiar  disciplinary 
value  of  such  studies  and  their  conspicuous  service  in  cultivat- 
ing the  literary  sense  and  developing  literary  taste,  they  have 
a  more  immediate  value  and  office  as  aids  to  the  comprehension 
and  interpretation  of  modern  languages  and  literatures.  A 
thoro  study  and  a  full  understanding  of  the  modern  languages, 
especially  the  Romance  languages  and  our  own  tongue,  de- 
mand a  considerable  preliminary  acquaintance  with  Latin  and 
Greek.  Thus  from  two  points  of  view,  that  of  their  own  in- 
trinsic beauty  and  value  as  culture  studies  and  that  of  aids 
to  the  study  of  other  languages,  Latin  and  Greek  command 
our  attention  and  call  for  a  large  place  in  any  curriculum 
which  proposes  to  issue  in  a  liberal  education. 

Courses  A,  B,  and  C,  if  not  used  for  entrance  units,  may 
be  taken  for  college  credit.

Greek  V. — Grammar  and  Prose  Composition:  an  inter- 
mediate course  in  Prose  Composition  adapted  to  the  needs  of 
students  taking  Greek  III  or  IV  and  consisting  of  weekly 
written  exercises  and  some  oral  work ;  in  connection  with  this 
there  will  be  a  general  review  of  Greek  Grammar  with  some

BIBLICAL  INSTRUCTION 

Professor  Buchholz 

The  following  courses  are  offered  to  Juniors  and  Seniors, 
embracing  such  aspects  of  Biblical  study  as  the  University  is 
prepared  to  give,  with  a  view  to  providing  a  major  subject  in 
the  Bachelor  of  Arts  curriculum  that  will  permit  students  to 
begin  preparation  for  work  as  secretary  or  physical  director 
of  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.,  for  welfare  work  in  mills  or  social  settle- 
ments, or  for  the  ministry.  The  courses  offered  will  be  con- 
ducted by  the  instructors  in  the  departments  under  which 
the  various  aspects  of  the  subject  naturally  fall  and  will  be 
given  in  a  spirit  free  from  narrow  sectarianism. 

Bible  I. — Old  Testament  History. — The  history  of  the  Is- 
raelitish  nation  as  narrated  in  the  books  of  the  Old  Testa- 
ment; the  connections  between  sacred  and  profane  history. 
The  aim  is  to  give  the  student  some  conception  of  the  develop- 
ment of  the  cultural,  ethical,  and  spiritual  life  of  the  nation.  (3 
hours.    Professor  Buchholz.) 

Bible  II. — New  Testament  History. — The  period  from

Bible  III. — The  English  Bible  as  Literature. — Literary 
types  found  in  the  Bible  and  the  excellence  of  the  work  as 
compared  with  other  great  examples  of  literature.  The  dic- 
tion of  the  1611  version  will  be  contrasted  with  that  of  other

ENGLISH  LANGUAGE  AND  LITERATURE 

Professor  Farr 
Mr.  Robertson 

The  work  is  designed  to  meet  the  requirements  for  a  prac- 


56  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

tical  and  liberal  education,  and  is  regarded  both  as  a  necessary 
auxiliary  to  the  training  in  the  technical  courses  and  as  an  im- 
portant factor  among  the  liberalizing  studies.  The  three  sides 
of  the  subject,  Rhetoric,  Linguistics,  and  Literature,  are  pre- 
sented as  fully  as  time  will  permit.  Rhetoric  and  composition 
are  stressed  in  the  lower  classes,  literary  studies  and  linguistic 
work  in  electives ;  nevertheless  the  attempt  is  made  to  keep  the 
three  viewpoints  before  all  classes  as  necessary  to  a  mastery 
of  their  native  language. 

English  I. — Advanced  College  Rhetoric. — Designed  to 
train  students  in  methods  of  clear  and  forceful  expression. 
Instruction  is  carried  on  simultaneously  in  formal  rhetoric,  in 
rhetorical  analysis,  and  in  theme  writing,  the  constant  correla- 
tion of  the  three  as  methods  of  approach  to  the  desired  goal 
being  kept  in  view.  In  addition  a  reading  course  is  assigned 
each  student.     (Required  of  all  Freshmen;  3  hours.) 

English  Ila. — Development  of  English  Prose. — This  will 
follow  the  method  of  Minto's  Manual  in  tracing  historically 
the  growth  of  English  prose  literature;  supplemented  by  col- 
lateral readings  and  by  essays.     (First  semester;  3  hours.) 

English  116. — Development  of  English  Poetry. — A  con- 
tinuation of  English  Ila,  applying  the  method  outlined  above 
to  the  study  of  English  poetry.     (Second  semester;  3  hours.) 

English  Ula.— Milton  and  the  Epic— A  study  of  Para- 
dise Lost,  around  which  are  grouped  studies  in  the  Age  of 
Milton  and  in  the  Epic  as  a  type  of  Comparative  Literature. 
The  first  four  books  of  the  poem  are  read  in  class.  Written 
reviews  on  the  remaining  books  alternate  each  week  with 
essays  from  the  student  and  lectures  by  the  instructor.  Read- 
ings in  the  minor  poets  of  the  age  and  in  the  English  transla- 
tions of  the  great  epics  are  assigned.  (First  semester;  3 
hours.) 

English  Ulb.  —  Shakespeare  and  the  Drama.  —  Three 
Shakesperian  plays  are  read  in  class.  On  eight  others  a 
written  review  is  held  each  fortnight,  and  on  the  alternate 
week  essays  are  written  by  the  students  and  lectures  are  given 
by  the  instructor.  Readings  in  the  English  drama  from  the 
Cycle  plays  to  contemporary  production  are  assigned.  (Sec- 
ond semester;  3  hours.) 

English  IVa. — American  Poetry. — A  rapid  survey  of  the 
development  of  poetry  in  the  United  States;  critical  study  of 


COLLEGE  OF  ARTS  AND  SCIENCES  57 

a  few  of  the  more  important  authors  (Bryant,  Whittier, 
Longfellow,  Emerson,  Lowell,  Poe).  {First  semester;  3 
hours.) 

English  IV6. — Southern  Literature. — A  detailed  study  of 
the  literature  of  the  South ;  extensive  reading  and  essay  work ; 
examination  of  the  claims  of  Florida  authors.  {Second  semes- 
ter; 3  hours.) 

English  V.  —  The  English  Novel.  —  The  chronological 
development  and  technic  of  the  novel.  The  student  reads  a 
list  of  novels  chosen  to  illustrate  chronology  and  variety  of 
species,  analyzes  minutely  one  novel  from  the  technical  side, 
masters  the  entire  work  and  life  of  one  novelist,  and  com- 
pares closely  a  novel  and  a  dramatized  version  of  it.  It  is 
hoped  the  student  may  be  so  grounded  in  the  classics  and 
his  taste  and  judgment  so  trained  that  his  reading  of  novels 
may  not  become  mere  intellectual  dissipation.     (3  hours.) 

English  VL — The  Romantic  Revival. — A  study  in  liter- 
ary movement:  the  causes  and  forces  which  underlie  the 
movement,  its  phenomena  and  the  authors  and  works  which 
exhibit  them,  and  a  comparison  with  other  movements  in 
literature.  The  work  of  Prof.  Beers  will  be  used  as  a  basis 
and  the  student  will  be  led,  by  means  of  extensive  reading, 
by  investigation  and  essays,  and  by  lectures,  to  realize  the 
truth  of  his  statements.     (3  hours.) 

English  VIL  —  Anglo-Saxon  Grammar  and  Reading. — 
Drill  in  the  forms  of  the  early  language  and  an  elementary 
view  of  its  relations  to  the  other  members  of  the  Aryan  fam- 
ily and  of  its  development  into  Modern  English.  The  texts 
in  Bright's  Anglo-Saxon  Reader  are  studied,  and  Cook's  edi- 
tion of  Judith  is  read.     (3  hours.) 

English  VIIL — Chaucer  and  Middle  English  Grammar. — 
During  the  first  semester  the  works  of  Chaucer  are  read  in 
and  out  of  class.  Pronunciation,  forms,  scansion,  condition  of 
text,  analogs,  and  sources  are  examined.  During  the  second 
semester,  Morris  and  Skeats'  Specimens,  Part  II,  is  studied 
in  connection  with  informal  lectures  on  Middle  English  viewed 
as  developing  from  Anglo-Saxon  into  Modern  English.  {Pre- 
requisite:   English  VII;  3  hours.) 

English  IX. — Engineering  Exposition. — An  attempt  to 
give  special  training  to  Engineering  students  in  the  prepara- 
tion of  the  various  kinds  of  writing  that  they  will  be  called 


58  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

upon  to  do  in  the  pursuit  of  their  profession.  It  will  consist 
largely  of  the  writing  of  papers  (upon  subjects  assigned  by 
the  departments  in  the  College  of  Engineering),  which  will 
be  criticised  and  revised.     (Engineering  Seniors;  1  hour.) 

EXPRESSION  AND  PUBLIC  SPEAKING 

Mr.  Chapman 

Expression  and  Public  Speaking.— Particular  attention 
is  given  to  establishing  a  correct  method  of  breathing,  to  cor- 
recting faulty  articulation,  and  to  teaching  the  principles  of 
interpretation  by  voice,  gesture,  and  facial  expression. 

A  small  tuition  fee  is  charged. 

HISTORY  AND  ECONOMICS 

Professor  Ault 

The  aim  of  this  department  is  to  train  students  to  use  his- 
torical and  economic  material  with  discrimination ;  to  develop 
a  general  knowledge  of  European,  English,  and  American 
History,  so  indispensable  to  a  general  college  course  and  espe- 
cially to  a  study  of  the  Social  Sciences;  to  furnish  students 
with  a  survey  of  economic  life  and  thought,  such  as  every 
educated  man  is  now  supposed  to  have;  and  to  explain  the 
economic  principles  lying  back  of  our  present  day  wealth- 
getting  and  wealth-dispensing  activities. 

Those  entering  the  University  for  the  first  time,  who  have 
not  had  satisfactory  courses  in  European  or  American  His- 
tory, are  advised  to  include  these  subjects  among  their  studies 
as  a  general  cultural  foundation  for  their  other  work.  To 
these  should  be  added  Economics  I,  which  is  a  prerequisite  to 
the  other  courses  offered  in  Economics.

MATHEMATICS  AND  ASTRONOMY 

Professor  Keppel 

MATHEMATICS 

The  work  in  the  Department  of  Mathematics  is  planned 
with  a  threefold  purpose  in  view: 

1.  For  those  who  intend  to  specialize  in  Mathematics  it 
provides  the  preparation  for  more  advanced  work.  Several 
advanced  courses  are  offered  each  year  for  this  class  of 
students. 

2.  To  those  who  need  Mathematics  as  an  instrument  it 
offers  opportunities  to  become  familiar  with  this  instrument. 
The  application  of  Calculus  not  only  to  Physics,  Chemistry, 
and  Engineering,  but  even  to  such  seemingly  remote  realms 
as  Psychology  and  Political  Economy,  makes  it  advisable 
that  this  class  should  continue  the  study  of  Mathematics  at 
least  so  far  as  to  include  Calculus. 

3.  To  others  it  gives  logical  training  in  Analysis  and 
Proof,  introduces  them  to  that  scientific  method  par  excel- 
lence of  the  Hypothesis,  and  develops  the  idea  of  a  deductive 
system  in  its  classical  form. 

The  following  courses  are  offered  each  year: 
Mathematics  A. — Solid  Geometry.     (2  hours.) 
Mathematics  B.  —  Plane   and   Spherical   Trigonometry. 
(2  hours.) 

Mathematics  I. — Plane  Analytic  Geometry  and  College 
Algebra.     (3  hours.) 

Mathematics  II. — Spherical  Trigonometry  and  Elemen- 
tary Calculus.     (1  hour.) 

Mathematics  III. — Differential  and  Integral  Calculus. 
(3  hours.) 


COLLEGE  OF  ARTS  AND  SCIENCES  61 

Mathematics  IV. — Solid  Analytic  Geometry  and  Calcu- 
lus.    (2  hours.) 

Mathematics  V.  —  Advanced  Calculus  and  Differential 
Equations.     (3  hours.) 

The  following  advanced  courses  were  offered  in  1917-18: 

Mathematics  VI.  —  Theory  of  Equations  and  Modern 
Higher  Algebra.     (3  hours.) 

Mathematics  VII.  —  Modern  Projective  Geometry.  (3 
hours.) 

ASTRONOMY 

In  connection  with  the  Department  of  Mathematics  a 
course  in  General  Astronomy  is  offered,  consisting  of  lec- 
tures and  recitations,  with  practical  exercises.  No  knowledge 
of  advanced  mathematics  is  presupposed.     (2  hours.) 

MILITARY  SCIENCE  AND  TACTICS 

Major  Walker 

Military  instruction  is  not  optional,  but  is  required  by 
law — by  the  law  of  the  United  States  and  by  the  law  of  the 
State. 

Excused  from  Military  Duty. — Graduate  and  Law  stu- 
dents. Seniors,  Juniors  in  the  Teachers  College,  Adult  Spe- 
cials, those  holding  discharges  from  the  U.  S.  army,  navy,  or 
marine  corps  after  at  least  one  term  of  enlistment,  and  the 
physically  disqualified. 

The  physically  disqualified  will  be  required  to  submit  a 
certificate  to  that  effect  from  the  resident  physician  and  will 
also,  prior  to  graduation,  be  required  to  make  up  an  equiva- 
lent amount  of  work  in  this  or  some  other  department. 

Those  who  have  served  for  three  years  in  the  national 
guard  may  be  excused  from  drills,  and  also,  provided  they 
pass  an  examination  under  the  Professor  of  Military  Science 
and  Tactics,  from  theoretical  work. 

Students  will  be  given  credit,  year  for  year,  for  work  done 
at  military  schools  having  army  officers  as  instructors. 

Those  taking  the  One- Year  Course  in  Agriculture  will 
be  excused  from  the  theoretical,  but  not  from  the  practical 
course. 

All  applications  to  be  excused  from  military  duty  for  other

work  mtLst  report  to  him  within  five  days  after  registering 
at  the  University. 

The  General  Faculty  has  adopted  the  following  rules: 

1.  Two  (2)  credit  hours  shall  be  the  equivalent  of  three  (3) 
drill  hours. 

2.  Students  from  other  institutions  entering  the  Junior  or  Senior 
class  without  having  had  the  requisite  amount  of  military  instruction 
shall,  unless  physically  disqualified,  be  required  to  take  military  science 
and  drill  for  two  (2)  years,  or  one  (1)  year,  respectively,  excepting 
that  in  the  Senior  year  a  study  equivalent  may  be  substituted  for  drill. 

3.  Pupils  entering  the  eleventh  or  twelfth  grades  shall  be  excused 
after  drilling  for  three  (3)  years  here. 

The  National  Defense  Act  of  June  3,  1916,  authorizes  the 
organization  of  an  Officers'  Reserve  Corps,  members  of  which 
may  be  assigned  by  the  President  of  the  United  States  to 
temporary  duty  in  time  of  peace  or  to  duty  in  time  of  war. 
While  so  assigned  they  receive  the  pay  and  allowances  of 
their  grade. 

One  method  of  securing  members  for  this  corps  is  by 
utilizing  the  voluntary  services  of  graduates  of  universities 
and  colleges  that  maintain  a  course  of  military  instruction, 
hence  the  Act  of  June  3  authorizes  the  President  to  establish 
and  maintain  at  such  institutions  a  Reserve  Officers'  Train- 
ing Corps  (R.O.T.C.). 

The  R.O.T.C.  is  composed  of  two  divisions:  a  senior  and 
a  junior  division,  the  former  of  which  is  maintained  at  insti- 
tutions having  a  four-year  course  leading  to  a  degree. 

Each  division  consists  of  units — such  as  infantry  units, 
artillery  units,  etc. 

Under  the  provisions  of  the  Act  of  June  3,  the  Secre- 
tary of  War  has  prescribed  a  standard  course  of  instruction 
covering  four  years.  The  first  two  years'  course  is  compul- 
sory and  its  successful  completion  necessary  for  graduation. 
The  second  two  years'  course  is  voluntary  upon  the  part  of 
the  student.  However,  having  once  entered  upon  the  course, 
the  student  must,  in  order  to  secure  the  benefits  accruing, 
carry  it  to  a  completion,  and  must,  to  secure  the  credits  neces- 
sary for  graduation,  make  up  time  lost. 

Membership  in  this  corps  is  restricted  to  physically  fit 
students  over  fourteen  years  of  age  who  are  citizens  of  the 
United  States,  but  who  are  not  members  of  the  U.  S.  Army, 
Navy  or  Marine  Corps,  or  of  the  National  Guard  or  Naval 
Militia.

Sec.  50,  Act  of  June  3,  reads: 

"  When  any  member  of  the  Senior  division  of  the  Reserve  Officers' 
Training  Corps  has  completed  two  academic  years  of  service  in  that 
division,  and  has  been  selected  for  further  training  by  the  president  of 
the  institution,  and  by  its  professor  of  military  science  and  tactics,  and 
has  agreed  in  writing  to  continue  in  the  Reserve  Officers'  Training 
Corps  for  the  remainder  of  his  course  in  the  institution,  devoting  five 
hours  per  week  to  the  military  training  prescribed  by  the  Secretary 
of  War,  and  has  agreed  in  writing  to  pursue  the  courses  in  camp  train- 
ing prescribed  by  the  Secretary  of  War,  he  may  be  furnished,  at  the 
expense  of  the  United  States,  with  commutation  of  subsistence  at  such 
rate,  not  exceeding  the  cost  of  the  garrison  ration  prescribed  for  the 
Army,  as  may  be  fixed  by  the  Secretary  of  War,  during  the  remainder 
of  his  service  in  the  Reserve  Officers'  Training  Corps." 

The  commutation  of  subsistence  is  30  cents  per  day  thru- 
out  the  calendar  year.  The  camp  training  is  limited  at  present 
to  four  weeks  at  the  end  of  the  Junior  and  of  the  Senior  years. 
Commutation  is  not  paid,  but  subsistence  in  kind  is  furnished 
during  the  encampment. 

The  President  is  authorized  to  appoint  in  the  Officers' 
Reserve  Corps  any  graduate  of  the  Senior  Division  of  the 
R.O.T.C.  who  shall  have  satisfactorily  completed  the  prescribed 
courses  of  military  training,  including  the  practical  instruc- 
tion subsequent  to  graduation,  who  shall  have  arrived  at 
twenty-one  years  of  age  and  who  shall  agree,  under  oath 
in  writing,  to  serve  the  United  States  in  the  capacity  of  a 
reserve  officer  of  the  Army  during  a  period  of  at  least  ten 
years  from  the  date  of  such  appointment,  unless  sooner  dis- 
charged by  proper  authority.  Graduates  pursuing  a  further 
course  of  study  are  not  eligible,  but  may  receive  an  appoint- 
ment later. 

The  President  is  authorized  to  appoint  and  commission  as 
a  temporary  second  lieutenant  of  the  Regular  Army,  in  time 
of  peace  and  for  the  purposes  of  instruction,  for  a  period 
not  exceeding  six  months,  with  the  allowances  now  provided 
by  law  for  that  grade,  but  with  pay  at  the  rate  of  $100.00 
per  month,  any  reserve  officer  appointed  as  above  described. 
Upon  the  expiration  of  this  service  with  the  Regular  Army 
such  officer  shall  revert  to  his  status  as  a  reserve  officer. 

Under  the  present  regulations  this  appointment  and 
assignment  to  duty  with  the  army  may  immediately  follow 
graduation,  in  which  case  the  four  weeks'  course  at  the  train- 
ing camp  will  be  omitted. 

Upon  the  application  of  the  President  of  the  University, 
approved  by  the  Board  of  Control,  an  Infantry  Unit,  Senior

Extensive  courses  of  reading,  in  and  out  of  class,  fre- 
quent exercises,  oral  and  written,  and  studies  in  literature

MUSIC 

Mr.  Chapman 
Mr.  Marchio 

This  department  aims  to  foster  a  love  for  good  music  and 
to  encourage  students  to  use  their  musical  abilities  and  train- 
ing for  the  benefit  of  themselves  and  others.  It  trains  and 
directs  the  student  chorus,  the  chapel  choir,  the  Glee  and  Man- 
dolin and  Guitar  Clubs,  the  Orchestra,  and  the  University 
Band,  and  offers  private  instruction  in  voice  and  in  violin  and 
other  instruments.  It  seeks  to  cooperate  with  the  musical 
organizations  of  Gainesville  and  in  conjunction  with  them  to 
give  several  public  entertainments  during  the  year.  (See  also 
under  Student  Organizations,  page  33.) 

Owing  to  the  lack  of  funds  for  the  department,  a  small 
tuition  fee  is  charged  for  private  instruction. 

PHILOSOPHY 

Professor  Cox 

The  primary  aim  of  this  department  is  to  give  the  student 
a  broad  outlook  upon  life  in  general,  as  well  as  a  better  un- 
derstanding of  his  own  life  from  psychological,  ethical,  and 
metaphysical  viewpoints.  Philosophy  lies  nearer  today  than 
ever  before  to  the  various  sciences  on  the  one  hand  and  to 
the  demands  of  practical  life  on  the  other. 

Another  very  important  aim  is  to  aid  in  the  professional

Professor  Buser 

This  department  has  jurisdiction  over  all  athletic,  aquatic, 
and  gymnastic  activities.  It  seeks:  (1)  To  develop  health, 
vigor,  and  good  physical  habits;  (2)  to  provide  an  incentive 
and  an  opportunity  for  every  student  to  secure  at  least  one 
hour's  physical  activity  daily  as  a  balance  to  the  sedentary  de- 
mands of  university  life;  (3)  to  conserve  the  social  and  moral 
values  of  games  and  sports;  (4)  to  encourage  and  develop  in- 
tramural sports;  and  (5)  to  make  athletic  sports  an  essential 
factor  in  military  training. 

Students  will  not  be  excused  from  the  prescribed  training 
during  the  first  two  years  without  substituting  a  satisfactory 
equivalent.    They  are  supposed  to  be  able  to  swim  a  distance

come a  candidate  for  football  or  other  team,  until  he  has  se- 
cured, after  examination,  the  written  permission  of  a  com- 
petent physician. 

All  activities  will  be  conducted  out  of  doors  in  so  far  as 
the  weather  will  permit.  The  regulation  suit  consists  of  white

PHYSICS 

Professor  Benton 
Assistant  Professor  Perry 

The  work  of  this  department  is  intended  to  meet  the  needs, 
on  the  one  hand,  of  those  who  study  physics  as  a  part  of  a 
liberal  education  and,  on  the  other  hand,  of  those  who  will 
have  to  apply  physics  as  one  of  the  sciences  fundamental  to 
engineering,  or  to  medicine. 

Instruction  is  given  by  (1)  recitations  based  upon  lessons 
assigned  in  textbooks;  (2)  laboratory  work,  in  which  the 
student  uses  his  own  direct  observation  to  gain  knowledge  of 
the  subject;  (3)  lectures,  in  which  experimental  demonstra- 
tions of  the  principles  under  discussion  are  given;  and  (4) 
seminar  work  in  the  advanced  courses,  in  which  the  various 
members  of  the  class  take  up  special  problems  requiring 
extended  study  or  investigation  and  report  upon  them. 

The  physical  laboratory  (see  page  20)  is  well  equipt  for 
the  experiments  usually  required  in  undergraduate  laboratory 
work  in  the  best  colleges.  The  equipment  has  been  greatly 
increased  in  the  last  few  years  and  additions  are  made  to  it 
from  year  to  year.

Aim  and  Scope. — The  college  was  established  under  the 
Acts  of  Congress  creating  and  endowing  institutions  for  the 
liberal  and  practical  education  of  the  industrial  classes  in  the 
different  states.  Recognition  of  agriculture  as  a  branch  of 
collegiate  instruction  is  a  distinctive  feature  of  the  schools  thus 
founded.  The  aim  of  the  College  is  to  afford  young  men  the 
best  possible  opportunity  for  gaining  technical  knowledge  and 


COLLEGE  OF  AGRICULTURE  73 

training  in  the  art  and  science  of  agriculture.  About  one-third 
of  the  student's  time  is  devoted  to  technical  studies  and  the 
other  two-thirds  to  basic  sciences  and  cultural  studies.  A  broad 
foundation  is  thus  laid  which  will  enable  graduates  to  become 
either  leaders  in  educational  work  or  effective  producing  agri- 
culturists. 

Equipment. — Agricultural  Hall  provides  space  for  offices ; 
for  classrooms  in  Agronomy,  Animal  Husbandry,  and  Agri- 
cultural Engineering;  for  laboratories  in  soils  and  fertilizers, 
crops  and  grain  judging,  farm  machinery,  farm  power,  milk 
testing,  dairy  manufactures,  etc. 

Libraries. — A  large  number  of  works  on  agriculture  and 
horticulture  have  recently  been  added  to  the  general  library. 
A  trained  librarian  is  in  charge  to  aid  students  in  getting 
quickly  the  references  needed.  Each  department  has,  further- 
more, a  small  collection  of  well-selected  volumes,  which  are 
always  accessible  to  students.    The  Experiment  Station  library 

contains  a  very  complete  set  of  bulletins  from  the  experiment 
stations  of  the  world  and  from  the  U.  S.  Department  of  Agri- 
culture. These  are  fully  indexed  and  carefully  filed.  The 
Experiment  Station  library  is  open  every  forenoon. 

Farms. — The  College  farm,  used  for  instruction  and  for 
growing  crops  with  which  to  feed  the  instruction  herds,  con- 
sists of  225  acres :  10  acres  for  trucking,  100  acres  for  pasture 
and  field  crops,  5  acres  for  orchard,  15  acres  for  soiling  pur- 
poses and  stock  lots,  and  5  acres  for  buildings  and  grounds. 
The  equipment  includes  a  hay  and  storage  barn,  a  farm  fore- 
man's house,  a  dairy  barn,  a  machinery  shed  and  corn  crib,  a 
potting  house,  and  several  irrigation  systems.  The  Experi- 
ment Station  farm  and  farm  buildings  are  easily  accessible  to 
students. 

AGRONOMY  DEPARTMENT 

The  Agronomy  Department  occupies  four  rooms — a  large, 
well-lighted  and  equipt  soil  laboratory,  with  adjoining  storage 
and  work  rooms,  an  office,  and  a  classroom. 

The  soil  laboratory  equipment  comprises  microscopes, 
sampling  augers,  tubes,  and  carriers;  balances,  ovens,  soil 
thermometers,  packers,  cylinders,  and  tubes;  moisture  ab- 
sorption box  with  trays;  percolation,  capillary,  and  evapora- 
tion apparatus;  sieves,  shaker,  etc.  The  equipment  is  of  the 
best  type  and  fully  adequate  for  giving  thoro  courses  in  soils. 


74  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

There  are  three  large  stone-top  desks  with  individual  lockers 
for  seventy-two  students.  The  storage  room  is  provided  with 
soil  bins,  packer,  cases,  and  shelving  in  abundance. 

For  Agricultural  Enginee^^ing  work  there  are  two  labora- 
tories— the  one  for  farm  motors  and  iron  work,  the  other  for 
farm  machinery  and  wood  work.  These  laboratories  are 
equipt  with  a  large  collection  of  labor-saving  machinery :  gas- 
oline engines,  windmills,  feed  grinders,  stalk  cutter,  walking 
and  riding  plows,  various  types  of  harrows,  walking  and  rid- 
ing cultivators,  seeders,  one  and  two-horse  corn  planters, 
manure  spreader,  surveying  implements,  etc.  Stress  is  laid 
upon  instruction  in  farm  machinery,  because  labor-saving 
appliances  have  not  yet  come  into  general  use  upon  Florida 
farms. 

HORTICULTURAL   DEPARTMENT 

In  addition  to  classrooms  and  laboratories,  ample  provi- 
sion is  made  for  practical  work  outdoors.  A  propagating 
house  and  nursery  on  the  farm  are  used  in  carrying  on  strati- 
fication, Jayerage,  cuttage,  budding,  grafting,  and  other  meth- 
ods of  plant  propagation ;  trees  of  different  kinds  are  growing 
in  the  orchard,  which,  though  still  small,  is  being  gradually 
enlarged ;  hot  beds  and  cold  frames  are  provided  for  starting 
young  plants;  an  irrigation  plant  has  been  installed  with 
Skinner,  Campbell,  Skinner-Stephens,  Florida  Favorite,  and 
modified  Skinner  sprinkling  devices,  and  a  surface  furrow 
system ;  and  large  canvas-covered  frames  for  growing  crops 
to  maturity  in  winter  have  been  constructed. 

ANIMAL  HUSBANDRY  DEPARTMENT 

The  Animal  Husbandry  Department  is  provided  with  a 
lecture-room  containing  seats  for  sixty  students  and  a  pad- 
dock, 12x24  feet  in  size,  with  concrete  floor  and  iron  railing, 
for  exhibiting  animals.  The  equipment  includes  a  two-ton 
Fairbanks  platform  scale,  tape  lines,  measuring  standards, 
and  projectors.  In  the  dairy  barn  a  stock-judging  arena,  30x40 
feet,  has  been  provided  for  practice  in  scoring  animals. 

The  equipment  in  Veterinary  Science  consists  of  mounted 
skeletons  of  the  horse  and  cow,  wall  charts  on  anatomy  and 
physiology,  veterinary  operating  instruments,  and  sample 
jars  of  common  drugs  and  medicines. 

For  work  in  Dairying  the  College  has  a  large,  well-lighted 
laboratory,  equipt  with  several  makes  of  hand-power  cream 


COLLEGE  OF  AGRICULTURE  75 

separators,  churns,  and  butter  workers;  milk  cooler,  gravity 
creamer,  vats  for  cream  ripening  and  cheese  making;  scales, 
wash  sinks,  sterilizer,  and  minor  apparatus. 

The  milk-testing  laboratory  contains  working  desks  and 
machinery  for  all  modern  tests  of  dairy  products.  The  equip- 
ment includes  Babcock  testers  of  different  sizes,  cream  scales, 
lactometers,  acidmeters,  butter-moisture  tests,  and  the  nec- 
essary glassware,  reagents,  etc. 

The  equipment  for  Poultry  Instruction  includes  incubator, 
brooders,  and  various  poultry-yard  appliances.  Poultry 
breeders  of  the  vicinity  aid  in  the  work  by  lending  selected 
fowls  for  judging  purposes. 

The  Barns  and  Livestock  include:  A  barn  for  the  horses 
and  mules  used  on  the  farm  and  campus;  a  large  dairy  bam 
of  modern  sanitary  construction,  provided  with  concrete  floors 
and  silos,  steel  stanchions  and  fittings,  for  the  herd  of  high- 
grade  and  registered  Jerseys  belonging  to  the  Experiment 
Station;  a  number  of  pens  and  grazing-yards  with  modern 
shelters  and  equipment,  containing  small  breeding  herds  of 
Berkshire,  Poland  China,  Duroc  Jersey,  Tamworth,  and  Ches- 
ter White  hogs.  Other  breeds  and  classes  of  animals  are  being 
added  from  year  to  year.  A  concrete  dipping-vat,  built  in 
cooperation  with  the  Florida  State  Board  of  Health,  is  used 
for  demonstrations  of  cattle-tick  eradication. 

The  County  and  State  Fairs  of  Florida  provide  excellent 
practice  each  year  in  showing  and  in  judging  animals.  Stu- 
dents are  encouraged  to  take  part  in  judging  contests  and  to 
aid  in  show-ring  work  whenever  practicable.  The  Southeast- 
ern Fair,  Atlanta,  Ga.,  offers  prizes  and  medals  to  competing 
teams  from  all  southern  Agricultural  Colleges.  The  Alachua 
County  Fair,  at  Gainesville,  and  the  Florida  State  Fair,  at 
Jacksonville,  offer  special  cash  prizes  and  diplomas  to  stu- 
dents making  the  best  records  in  stock  judging.  Several  large 
herds  of  cattle  and  hogs  within  a  few  miles  of  the  University, 
in  Alachua  and  Marion  Counties,  are  constantly  available  for 
inspection  and  judging  purposes.  The  meat-packing  houses 
and  dairy  plants  of  Jacksonville  and  vicinity  are  freely  offered 
for  study,  and  trips  for  this  purpose  under  the  guidance  of  in- 
structors are  arranged  each  year. 

The  Agricultural  Club. — The  purpose  of  the  Agricul- 
tural Club  is  to  train  the  student  in  public  speaking  and  in 


76  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA

94  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

FOUR-MONTH    COURSES    IN    AGRICULTURE 

The  work  of  each  semester  of  the  One- Year  Course  out- 
lined above  has  been  so  planned  as  to  form  of  itself  a  well 
rounded  course  of  study  which  can  be  pursued  to  advantage 
by  those  unable  to  spend  more  than  four  months  at  the  Uni- 
versity. Each  of  these  Four-Month  Short  Courses,  one  of 
which  begins  on  September  17,  1918,  and  the  other  on  January 
27,  1919,  should  appeal  to  farmers  who  wish  to  increase  their 
productive  power,  to  young  men  who  expect  to  become  farm- 
ers, and  to  those  who  are  turning  from  other  lines  of  work  in 
order  to  obtain  the  advantages  of  country  life. 

Military  Drill  is  not  required  of  those  who  take  only  one  of 
these  courses,  but  is  required  of  those  who  take  both  during 
the  same  scholastic  year. 

TEN-DAY  COURSE  FOR  FARMERS 

Beginning  January  7,  1919,  and  ending  January  16,  1919. 

The  Farmers'  Ten-Day  Course  is  offered  to  meet  the  needs 
of  those  who  cannot  pursue  a  longer  course.  It  is  especially 
suited  to  the  following  classes :  Farmers  of  all  ages  who  recog- 
nize their  need  for  some  training  in  scientific  agriculture  in 
order  to  render  more  effective  the  practical  knowledge  they 
have  already  gained;  young  men  who  are  compelled  to  drop 
out  of  school  and  yet  desire  to  devote  a  short  time  to  special 
preparation  for  work  upon  the  farm ;  city  students  who  wish 
to  fit  themselves  for  farm  life ;  and  colonists  who  wish  infor- 
mation regarding  Florida  conditions  and  methods. 

The  laboratory  equipment,  the  purebred  live  stock,  and  the 
farms  will  be  available  for  instruction  in  the  Short  Courses; 
the  Agricultural  Experiment  Station  will  afford  opportunity 
for  observation  and  inquiry.  Care  has  been  taken  to  arrange 
this  course  to  meet  the  needs  of  the  practical  farmer.  The 
course  will  consist  of  lectures,  laboratory  work,  and  field  obser- 
vations and  demonstrations  in  general  field  crops,  soils,  horti- 
culture, animal  husbandry,  and  dairying. 

There  are  no  age  limits  and  no  educational  requirements 
for  admission. 

Expenses. — The  necessary  expenses  for  the  Farmers' 
Short  Course  for  those  who  board  at  the  University  are : 

Board,  room,  heat,  and  light  for  eleven  days $  7.00 

Laundry  and  Incidentals   (estimated) 1.00 

Total $  8.00 


COLLEGE  OF  AGRICULTURE  95 

The  rooms  in  the  dormitories  are  supplied  with  necessary 
furniture,  but  each  student  is  required  to  bring  sufficient 
bedding  for  his  own  use. 

The  necessary  expenses  for  the  Farmers'  Ten-Day  Course 
for  those  who  board  and  room  in  Gainesville  are: 

Board,  room,  etc $10.00 

Laundry  and  Incidentals   (estimated) 1.00 

Total $11.00 

CORRESPONDENCE  COURSES 

Dean  Rolfs 
Mr.  Weaver 

The  modern  university  does  not  limit  its  services  to  those 
that  come  to  study  on  the  campus,  the  number  of  whom  is 
necessarily  small,  but  seeks  to  extend  its  benefits  to  every 
community  in  its  state.  Hence  the  College  of  Agriculture 
endeavors,  thru  its  Extension  Division  and  its  Correspondence 
Courses,  to  reach  and  to  help  every  rural  district  in  Florida. 
The  Legislature  of  1909,  it  is  true,  authorized  instruction  in 
agriculture  in  the  public  schools ;  nevertheless,  there  are  many 
on  the  farm  who  still  feel  the  need  of  agricultural  training. 
It  is  for  these,  for  teachers,  for  prospective  farmers,  and  for 
new  settlers  unacquainted  with  Florida  conditions,  that  cor- 
respondence courses  are  offered. 

It  is  not  expected  that  these  courses  can  be  as  effective  as 
resident  study,  wherein  the  student  has  the  advantages  of  labo- 
ratory equipment  and  of  personal  contact  with  competent  in- 
structors. But  those  who  cannot  attend  the  University  will 
find  the  courses  profitable  and  instructive.  Their  effectiveness 
is  limited  only  by  the  initiative  and  diligence  of  the  student. 

Fourteen  courses,  organized  according  to  recognized  stand- 
ards, are  offered.  Others  will  be  added  as  rapidly  as  demands 
justify.  For  the  convenience  of  persons  who  wish  to  special- 
ize in  some  branch  of  agriculture,  the  courses  given  are 
grouped  into  five  divisions.  Any  one  or  all  of  the  courses  may 
be  taken.  It  is  best,  however,  to  pursue  them  in  some  logical 
order. 

(A)     For  Farmers. — The  following  courses  are  offered: 

Elementary  Agriculture  Manures  and  Fertilizers 

Soils  Fertilizers  and  Crops  (advanced 
Tillage  course) 

Drainage   and    Irrigation  Field  Crops 


96  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

Breeds  of  Livestock,  Feeds  and  Poultry  Production 

Feeding  Citrus   Fruits   and   Citrus   Culture 

Dairy    Production  Trucking 

Swine  Production  Cooperation    in   Agriculture 

These  are  grouped  under  the  heads:  Animal  Husbandry, 
Dairying,  Agronomy,  Citrus  Culture,  and  Trucking.  Element- 
ary Agriculture  stands  first  in  each  group  and  will  be  found 
invaluable  as  a  basis  for  practical  farming  and  further  study. 

The  agronomy  group  is  of  special  interest  to  those  living  in 
the  northern  and  western  parts  of  the  State,  the  citrus  and 
trucking  groups  to  those  in  the  southern  and  central  portions, 
dairying  and  animal  husbandry  to  those  living  anywhere  in 
Florida.  Those  wishing  to  specialize  in  some  branch  of  agri- 
culture will  find  the  groups  in  trucking,  citrus,  poultry,  and 
dairying  valuable.  The  general  farmer  will  be  interested  in 
animal  husbandry,  agronomy,  and  perhaps,  dairying. 

(B)  For  Teachers. — Altho  only  Elementary  Agricul- 
ture is  necessary  for  teachers  preparing  for  the  examination 
required  for  a  certificate,  nevertheless  they  would  find  all  the 
courses  offered  for  farmers  helpful,  as  they  cannot  hope  to  ren- 
der the  best  service  without  additional  knowledge  of  agricul- 
ture. 

To  cover  office  expenses  a  registration  fee  of  $1.00  is 
charged  for  each  course.  Florida  students  pay  no  tuition  fee ; 
others  are  charged  a  nominal  sum,  the  amount  of  which  de- 
pends upon  the  course.  Students  must  buy  textbooks  and 
pay  postage  on  manuscripts  to  and  from  the  University.  Regis- 
tration may  be  made  at  any  time  during  the  year.  Both  men 
and  women  are  eligible.  Negroes  are  referred  to  the  Agricul- 
tural and  Mechanical  College  for  Negroes,  at  Tallahassee.  For 
further  information  apply  to  the  Dean  of  the  College  of  Ag- 
riculture. 

AGRICULTURAL  MEETINGS 

A  large  number  of  people  interested  in  agriculture  meet 
annually  at  the  University.  These  find  excellent  accomoda- 
tions and  facilities  better  for  their  purposes  than  anywhere 
else  in  the  State.  Laboratories,  classrooms,  and  exhibits,  as 
well  as  the  growing  crops,  barns,  and  other  equipment,  are 
placed  freely  at  their  service. 

The  following  meetings  were  held  during  the  past  year : 

County  Demonstration  Agents,  October  1-6. 

Citrus  Seminar  Class,  October  10-16.

AGRICULTURAL  EXPERIMENT  STATION 

P.  H.  Rolfs,  Director 

Staff.— P.  H.  Rolfs,  S.  E.  Collison,  H.  L.  Dozier,  B.  F. 
Floyd,  C.  W.  Long,  J.  Matz,  L.  T.  Neiland,  M.  Nothnagel,  J.  M. 
Scott,  C.  L.  Sensabaugh,  C.  D.  Sherbakoff,  A.  M.  Smith,  H.  E. 
Stevens,  J.  B.  Thompson,  J.  E.  Turlington,  W.  H.  Turnley,  T. 
Van  Hyning,  J.  R.  Watson. 

Aim  and  Scope. — Agricultural  experiment  stations  are 
institutions,  founded  by  Congressional  act,  the  purpose  of 
which  is  to  acquire  and  diffuse  agricultural  knowledge.  From 
the  enacting  clause  it  is  evident  that  Congress  intended  to 
establish  with  every  college  and  university  receiving  the 
benefits  of  the  original  "Land-Grant  Act"  an  institution  for 
purely  investigational  work.  The  Florida  Agricultural  Ex- 
periment Station  was  founded  in  1888  and  has  continued 
without  interruption.  Inasmuch  as  its  funds  are  received 
from  Federal  sources,  it  must  comply  with  the  require- 
ments of  the  Federal  law.  Its  income  must  be  used  for  the 
purpose  of  acquiring  new  and  important  knowledge  in  regard 
to  crops  and  soils  and  no  part  can  be  expended,  directly  or  in- 
directly, for  teaching  purposes  or  for  holding  Farmers'  Insti- 
tutes, and  only  five  per  cent  for  building  or  making  repairs. 
In  order  to  receive  the  benefits  of  the  Adams'  fund,  the  Station 
must  submit  plans  for  proposed  experiments  to  the  U.  S.  De- 
partment of  Agriculture  for  approval  before  any  of  the 
moneys  are  spent  in  investigation. 

Advantages  of  Location. — The  advantages  of  having 
the  Agricultural  Experiment  Station  at  the  University  are 
obvious.  At  frequent  intervals  the  investigators  deliver  pop- 
ular and  technical  lectures,  either  to  the  student-body  as  a 
whole  or  to  special  clubs  and  local  organizations.  As  the 
fields  and  orchards  of  the  Station  are  used  solely  for  experi- 
mental purposes  and  as  its  laboratories  are  planned  and  con- 
ducted for  research  work,  they  contribute  to  the  opportunities 
of  the  students  for  studying  methods  of  scientific  investiga- 
u.  f. — 7 


98  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

tion.    Some  of  those  with  special  aptitude  have  an  opportunity 
of  assisting  the  specialists  in  charge. 

Minor  positions,  such  as  those  of  laboratory  assistant,  are 
occasionally  open  and,  whenever  practicable,  are  given  to 
graduates  of  the  University.  Such  assistants  are  paid  a  small 
salary  for  half  of  their  time  and  during  the  other  half  are 
free  to  take  studies  leading  to  higher  degrees. 

Building. — See  page  17. 

Lines  of  Investigation. — The  lines  of  investigation  car- 
ried on  fall  naturally  into  several  departments;  Horticulture, 
including  the  introduction,  breeding,  and  propagation  of 
plants ;  Animal  Industry,  including  the  study  of  feed  crops,  the 
effect  of  feeding  certain  crops  to  cattle  and  hogs  and  the 
growing  of  feed  and  forage  crops;  Agronomy,  including  the 
breeding  of  cotton,  corn,  and  other  farm  crops;  Plant  Path- 
ology, including  the  study  of  plant  diseases  produced  by  fungi 
and  bacteria ;  Plant  Physiology,  including  the  study  of  plants 
as  affected  by  fertilizer  and  soil  conditions;  Chemistry,  in- 
cluding the  study  of  fertilizers  and  soils,  especially  as  to  their 
effects  on  plants ;  Entomology,  including  the  study  of  insecti- 
cides and  insects  and  their  parasites.  The  work  of  the 
Station  is,  however,  not  sharply  divided  among  these 
different  departments.  The  Staff  formulate  what  are 
known  as  projects,  the  work  on  which  is  continued  re- 
gardless as  to  whether  its  ramifications  take  it  into  one  or 
another  department,  and  not  infrequently  two  or  more  depart- 
ments are  engaged  in  the  solution  of  the  same  project — in 
other  words,  the  work  is  limited  only  by  the  abilities  of  the 
Staff  and  the  resources  of  the  institution. 

Projects. — Some  of  the  more  important  projects  are: 

1.  The  study  of  soils  and  fertilizers  in  their  relation  to  plant  growth 
and  development. 

2.  The  study  of  certain  citrus  diseases,  such  as  Gumming,  Mela- 
nose,  Canker,  Anthracnose,  Blight,  and  Stem-End  Decay. 

3.  The  study  of  vegetable  diseases — cantaloupe  blight,  bacterial 
diseases  of  cucumbers  and  other  vegetables  and  seed  bed  diseases  affect- 
ing Lettuce,  Celery,  Eggplant,  and  Tomatoes. 

4.  The  study  of  a  disease  (hitherto  unstudied)  of  the  pecan  which  is 
affecting  this  crop  in  different  localities. 

5.  The  study  of  Pineapple  wilts. 

6.  The  study  of  Velvet  Bean  caterpillar. 

7.  The  control  of  Root-knot. 

8.  The  control  of  Camphor  and  other  thrips,  and  scale  insects. 

9.  Studies  in  the  effect  upon  citrus  trees  of  different  quantities  and 
combinations  of  the  nutrient  elements. 


UNIVERSITY  EXTENSION  99 

10.  Experiments  in  milk,  pork,  and  beef  production  to  determine 
the  most  economical  feeds. 

11.  The  trying  out  of  different  forage  crops  for  all  kinds  of  live 
stock. 

12.  Experiments   with   different  kinds   of   silage   with  the   view   to 
determining  the  best  for  the  use  of  the  Florida  stock  raiser. 

Publications. — Compilations  and  information  of  a  gen- 
eral nature  cannot  be  printed  from  Federal  funds,  hence  the 
publications  of  the  Experiment  Station  are  limited  to  reports 
of  work  done  by  members  of  its  Staff.  The  publications  per- 
missible fall  into  three  classes :  Bulletins,  Press  Bulletins,  and 
Annual  Reports.  The  Bulletins  contain  the  more  or  less  com- 
plete results  of  some  particular  investigation.  At  least  four 
are  issued  annually ;  one  hundred  and  forty-five  numbers  have 
appeared.  The  Press  Bulletins  are  prepared  in  order  to  bring 
to  the  citizens  of  Florida  information  connected  with  the  in- 
vestigations that  are  being  carried  on,  before  all  the  work 
necessary  for  the  publishing  of  a  Bulletin  has  been  completed. 
They  are  issued  at  short  intervals,  two  hundred  and  eighty- 
six  having  already  appeared.  The  Annual  Reports  contain  a 
brief  statement  of  the  work  done,  as  well  as  of  the  expendi- 
ture of  funds.    Twenty-seven  have  been  published. 

All  of  these  publications  are  distributed  free  upon  request.

COOPERATIVE  DEMONSTRATION  WORK 

County  Cooperative  Demonstration  Work  was  started  by 
the  late  Dr.  Seaman  A.  Knapp,  who  had  in  view  the  improve- 
ment of  rural  conditions  in  the  South.  The  Southern  Educa- 
tion Board  bore  the  entire  expense  until  1910  and  a  part  of 
the  expense  until  1913.  The  advent  and  spread  of  the  Texas 
cotton  boll-weevil  proved  so  threatening  to  the  agricultural 
interests  of  Florida  that  in  1911  the  State  Legislature  made 
an  annual  appropriation  of  $5000  to  offset  Federal  funds 
already  appropriated  by  Congress.  The  good  accomplished 
and  the  increasing  need  led  in  1914  to  the  passage  by  Congress 
of  the  Smith-Lever  Bill. 

The  State  Legislature  has  enacted  laws  enabling  Florida 
to  secure  all  the  benefits  of  the  Smith-Lever  Act  and  of  other 
appropriations  of  Congress.  Hence,  at  the  beginning  of  the 
calendar  year  of  1918,  the  State  has  the  services  of  specialists 
for  the  promotion  of  its  livestock,  dairying,  fruit,  and  trucking 
interests,  as  well  as  its  proportionate  part  of  the  War  Emer- 
gency   Appropriation    of    1917    providing    for    agricultural 


104  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

workers;  and  every  county  in  the  State  has  an  Agricultural 
and  Home  Demonstration  Agent  to  develop  its  permanent 
agricultural  interests  and,  as  a  war  measure,  to  increase  and 
conserve  the  food  crop. 

Until  1913  the  Demonstration  Work  was  conducted  inde- 
pendently of  the  College  of  Agriculture.  The  provisions  of  the 
Smith-Lever  Act,  however,  require  that  this  work  shall  be 
carried  on  cooperatively  by  the  U.  S.  Department  of  Agricul- 
ture and  the  State  according  to  a  plan  to  be  agreed  upon  by 
the  Chief  of  the  Office  of  the  Farmers'  Cooperative  Extension 
Work,  representing  the  Department  of  Agriculture,  and  by  the 
Director  of  the  Agricultural  Extension  Division,  representing 
the  College  of  Agriculture  of  the  University.  Because  of  the 
close  relationship  existing  between  the  College  of  Agriculture 
and  the  farming  interests  of  the  State,  the  wisdom  of  these 
provisions  is  self-evident. 

Smith-Lever  Act. — Thru  this  Act  of  Congress,  which 
went  into  effect  on  July  1,  1914,  the  College  of  Agriculture 
receives  $10,000  annually,  to  be  expended  for  Cooperative 
Demonstration  Work  in  Agriculture  and  Home  Economics. 
An  additional  sum,  increasing  annually,  also  becomes  available, 
provided  the  State  appropriates  an  equal  amount.  Each  suc- 
ceeding Legislature  has  met  this  requirement.  The  total 
amount  from  these  sources  for  the  fiscal  year  of  1917-1918  is 
$44,597.04. 

The  purpose  of  the  Act  may  be  seen  from  the  following 
quotation  : 

"That  cooperative  agricultural  extension  work  shall  consist  of  the 
giving  of  instruction  and  practical  demonstrations  in  agriciilture  and 
home  economics  to  persons  not  attending  or  resident  in  said  colleges  in 
the  several  communities,  and  imparting  to  such  persons  information  on 
said  subjects  through  field  demonstrations,  publications,  and  otherwise; 
and  this  work  shall  be  carried  on  in  such  a  manner  as  may  be  mutually 
agreed  upon  by  the  Secretary  of  Agriculture  and  the  State  agricultural 
college  or  colleges  receiving  the  benefits  of  this  act." 

Organization. — The  organization  for  Florida  consists  of: 

The  Director,  the  chief  executive  in  shaping  and  directing 
policies. 

The  Assistant  Director,  who  supervises  the  work  carried 
on  at  headquarters  and  aids  in  directing  that  done  in  the  field. 
He  is  charged  with  the  direction  of  cooperative  specialists. 

The  State  Agent,  who  has  direct  supervision  of  County 
Agents.    His  duties  are  outlined  by  the  Chief  of  the  Farmers' 


UNIVERSITY  EXTENSION  105 

Cooperative  Work,  Washington,  D.  C,  and  the  Director  of  the 
Agricultural  Extension  Division. 

The  State  Home  Demonstration  Agent,  who  has  general 
supervision  of  the  women's  and  girls'  work  carried  on  by 
County  Agents. 

District  Agents,  who  visit  regularly  the  County  Agents, 
advising  them  and  planning  their  work.  For  the  men's  work 
the  State  is  divided  into  three  districts  of  eighteen  counties 
each:  (1)  the  counties  in  North  and  East  Florida;  (2)  those 
in  West  Florida;  and  (3)  those  in  Central  and  South  Florida. 
The  women's  work  is  supervised  by  two  District  Agents,  work- 
ing under  the  State  Agent — one  in  charge  of  West,  North,  and 
East  Florida ;  the  other  of  Central  and  South  Florida. 

Boys'  Agricultural  Club  Agents,  who  have  general  charge 
of  the  Corn,  Pig,  and  Peanut  Clubs  organized  by  County 
Agents  with  the  cooperation  of  teachers  and  superintendents 
of  public  schools. 

The  Poultry  Club  Agent,  who  is  in  charge  of  the  Women's 
and  Girls'  Poultry  Clubs  organized  by  County  Home  Demon- 
stration Agents. 

The  Home  Dairying  Agent,  who  seeks  by  stimulating  the 
production  of  sanitary  milk  and  good  butter  and  by  teaching 
the  proper  dietary  use  of  dairy  products  to  advance  the  dairy- 
ing interests  of  the  State. 

Specialists  from  the  Bureaus  of  the  U.  S.  Department  of 
Agriculture,  assigned  to  work  with  the  Extension  Division. 
Such  specialists  are  now  engaged  in  studying : 

(a)  Hog-Cholera  Control. 

(b)  Beef  and  Mutton  Production. 

(c)  Sweet  Potato  Storage. 

(d)  Truck  Insects. 

(e)  Distribution  of  Farm  Labor. 

(f )  Insects  of  Stored  Grains. 

County  Agents,  who  visit  farms  and  homes  to  enlist  co- 
operation and  to  help  in  carrying  out  better  methods  of  farm- 
ing, or  of  home  economics,  that  may  serve  as  a  demonstration 
to  the  community,  organize  Farmers'  Cooperative  Associa- 
tions and  Agricultural  Clubs,  and  work  to  upbuild  agricultural 
interests  by  stimulating  the  production  of  crops  and  live- 
stock. Each  County  Agent  has  a  centrally  located  office,  usu- 
ally at  the  county  seat,  where  supplies,  records,  and  a  liberal 
supply  of  the  best  agricultural  literature  are  kept  and  where 


106  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

he  spends  one  day  each  week  for  consultations.  All  agents 
are  required  to  file  weekly,  monthly,  and  yearly  reports. 

County  Agents  are  selected,  on  recommendation  of  the 
State  Agent  and  his  assistants,  because  of  educational  quali- 
fications and  training  for  work  peculiar  to  the  conditions  of 
the  county  to  which  they  are  assigned. 

Counties  desiring  to  cooperate  are  required  to  defray  a 
part  of  the  expenses  incurred  by  the  employment  of  County 
Agents — a  minimum  of  $600  for  a  County  Demonstration 
Agent  and  from  $300  to  $400  for  a  Home  Demonstration 
Agent. 

For  the  fiscal  year  ending  June  30,  1917,  forty-five  counties 
made  appropriations  for  the  employment  of  County  Demon- 
stration Agents  and  thirty-eight  for  the  employment  of  Home 
Demonstration  Agents.  Counties  not  making  appropriations 
will  be  supplied  with  both  County  and  Home  Demonstration 
Agents  until  June  30,  1918,  from  Federal  Emergency  Funds. 

Schools  for  Demonstration  Agents. — The  Farm 
Demonstration  Agents  are  assembled  annually  for  instruction 
at  the  University,  the  Home  Demonstration  Agents  at  the 
State  College  for  Women.  The  programs  consist  of  lectures 
by  the  professors  of  the  College  of  Agriculture  and  the  mem- 
bers of  the  Experiment  Station  Staff,  and  of  papers  by  County 
and  State  Agents  and  successful  farmers.  Plans  for  the 
year's  work  are  discussed  from  every  angle,  so  that  the  great- 
est amount  of  work  can  be  accomplished  with  the  agencies  at 
hand. 

Group  Meetings. — County  Agents  are  assembled  in 
groups  of  five  or  six  on  well-managed  farms  to  observe  the 
best  practices  and  to  secure  information  from  the  managers. 
Six  locations  were  visited  in  1917. 

BOYS'  WORK 

Corn  Clubs. — The  following  summary  of  the  work  accom- 
plished in  1917  shows  what  progress  the  Corn  Club  idea  has

Pig  Clubs. — These  clubs  had  in  1917  a  total  membership  of 
652,  distributed  thruout  counties  having  County  Agents.  The 
breeds  represented  were:  Duroc  Jersey,  520;  Poland  China, 
77 ;  Berkshire,  40 ;  Hampshire,  15.  Two  hundred  and  twenty- 
five  boys  reported  weights  and  costs  of  feed.  A  summary  of 
their  reports  follows : 

No.  hogs  entered  for  county  contests  225 

Average  weight  at  beginning 39.81bs. 

Average  weight  at  date  of  contest  185.21t)s.

Average  profit  per  hog  $30.69 

Total  profit  $6905.25 

WOMEN'S  WORK 

Girls'  Canning  Clubs. — Girls  between  the  ages  of  ten 
and  eighteen  are  eligible  for  membership.  Each  member  is 
required  to  grow  at  least  one-tenth  of  an  acre  of  vegetables 
under  the  supervision  of  the  County  Home  Demonstration 
Agent.  At  the  close  of  the  year's  work,  prizes  are  awarded 
on  the  basis  of  yield,  profit,  quality  of  product,  and  record. 
Prizes  consist  of  money,  household  appliances,  and  scholar- 
ships to  the  Short  Course  offered  by  the  State  College  for 
Women  at  Tallahassee. 

Girls'  Poultry  Clubs. — These  are  organized  by  the 
County  Home  Demonstration  Agents.  Girls  between  the  ages 
of  twelve  and  eighteen  that  have  been  successful  in  their 
canning-club  work  are  enrolled.  The  club  members  are  urged 
to  secure  the  same  breed  of  poultry,  to  give  proper  food  and 
care,  and  to  study  standards  of  perfection  and  marketing 
methods. 

Work  in  Homes. — The  work  in  rural  homes,  which  is 
usually  taken  up  in  families  represented  in  a  Canning  Club, 
looks  forward  to  screening  the  house,  to  introducing  labor- 
saving  conveniences,  to  providing  an  economical  water  supply, 


108  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

to  disposing  properly  of  sewage,  to  economising  thru  the 
preservation  of  waste  vegetables  and  fruits,  and  to  studying 
food  conservation. 

The  work  in  city  homes  is  under  the  direction  of  the  State 
Agent  for  Home  Demonstration  Work  and  is  provided  for  by 
War  Emergency  funds.  Specialists  in  Home  Economics  are 
teaching,  in  nine  of  the  larger  cities  and  towns  of  the  State, 
food  and  fuel  conservation,  the  use  of  substitutes  for  wheat, 
meat,  and  for  animal  fats,  and  are  encouraging  city  gardening. 

BOYS'  AND  GIRLS'  CLUB  CONTESTS 

Contests  are  held  in  each  county  at  the  close  of  the  club 
year.  The  County  Agents  arrange  a  program  in  which  par- 
ents of  club  members  take  active  part.  The  boys  are  required 
to  bring  ten  ears  of  corn — ^the  girls,  samples  of  their  canned 
products — and  a  record  of  labor  and  cost  of  production. 

INSTITUTES 

Farmers'  Institutes. — Agricultural  Extension  work  in 
Florida  began  with  Farmers'  Institutes,  as  it  is  more  practical 
and  economical  for  farmers  to  meet  at  a  central  point  for  in- 
struction and  have  their  problems  discussed  by  students  of 
agriculture  than  to  have  each  individual  travel  to  the  College 
for  the  same  information.  Without  a  systematic  arrangement 
to  meet  demands  for  Institutes,  unnecessary  travel  and  ex- 
pense would  be  incurred,  and  without  knowledge  of  the  farm- 
ing needs,  the  greatest  help  to  the  greatest  number  could  not  be 
given;  hence,  when  Institutes  are  desired,  applications  are  to 
be  filed  with  the  Director  of  the  Agricultural  Extension 
Division  and  arrangements  are  to  be  made  with  the  County 
Agents,  who  know  local  conditions  and  needs. 

It  is  proposed  to  organize  Farmers'  Associations  in  com- 
munity centers  in  every  county  in  order  to  secure  farm  loans, 
cooperative  marketing,  school  and  social  advantages,  and  a 
larger  production  of  farm  crops. 

Women's  Institutes. — Applications  for  Women's  Insti- 
tutes are  to  be  made  to  the  State  Home  Demonstration  Agent, 
Tallahassee,  Florida.  Arrangements  are  completed  by  the 
District  and  County  Home  Demonstration  Agents.  These  in- 
stitutes are  sometimes  held  independently  of  Farmers'  Insti- 
tutes,  but  more   frequently   at  the   same   time   and   place. 


UNIVERSITY  EXTENSION  109 

Women's  Institutes  are  usually  most  effective  in  the  communi- 
ties where  Canning  Clubs  and  Rural  Betterment  Clubs  have 
been  organized  and  where  the  fundamentals  of  preserving 
have  been  taught  to  the  girls.  Demonstrations  in  canning, 
preserving,  handling  milk  and  other  dairy  products  and  fresh 
meats,  use  of  household  conveniences — such  as  the  iceless  re- 
frigerator and  fireless  cooker — are  given  wherever  possible. 
Women's  Institutes  work  toward  the  organization  of  Home 
Improvement  Clubs  and  provide  a  working  plan  for  them. 

Field  meetings. — Field  Meetings  are  arranged  by  County 
Agents,  and  are  usually  held  on  the  farm  of  a  demonstrator 
who  is  carrying  out  their  instructions.  Neighboring  farmers 
assemble  to  discuss  the  crops  and  methods  of  culture.  A 
demonstration  with  hog  cholera  serum  or  in  spraying  fruit 
trees  or  a  cattle  dipping  frequently  takes  place. 

Results. — The  upward  tendency  of  the  agricultural  in- 
terests of  Florida  dates  from  the  beginning  of  systematic  In- 
stitutes. Before  this  many  counties  produced  very  little  either 
in  crops  or  in  improved  livestock ;  today  practically  all  produce 
a  fair  amount  of  corn,  hay,  and  other  staple  crops,  silos  and 
dipping  vats  have  come  into  general  use,  and  farmers  are 
breeding  purebred  stock  and  buying  from  other  states. 

During  the  past  ten  years  the  yield  of  corn  has  increased 
from  9.6  to  15  bushels  per  acre — in  spite  of  the  fact  that  most 
of  the  new  lands  brought  into  cultivation  since  1907  are  not  as 
well  adapted  for  corn  growing  as  those  which  were  farmed 
earlier.  The  total  production  of  corn  in  Florida  in  1907  was 
4,351,000  bushels;  in  1917  it  was  13,875,000  bushels— an  in- 
crease of  nearly  10,000,000  bushels.  The  production  of  other 
staple  crops  shows  a  similar  improvement.

HOG-CHOLERA  CONTROL 

The  Bureau  of  Animal  Industry,  U.  S.  D.  A.,  has  assigned 
to  the  College  of  Agriculture  four  specialists  to  assist  County- 
Agents  in  waging  a  spirited  campaign  against  hog  cholera  and 
other  hog  diseases.  Farmers  are  instructed  how  to  prevent 
infection  of  their  herds  and  how  to  check  an  incipient  out- 
break; demonstrations  with  hog-cholera  serum  are  given  on 
farms  where  hog  cholera  is  present.  The  work  is  planned  so 
that  as  many  farmers  as  possible  may  profit  by  the  instruction 
and  demonstrations.

COLLEGE  OF  ENGINEERING 

J.  R.  Benton,  Dean 

Faculty. — J.  R.  Benton,  R.  E.  Chandler,  C.  L.  Crow, 
H.  S.  Davis,  James  M.  Farr,  H.  B.  Foster,  C.  Hecker,  H.  G.

GENERAL  STATEMENT 

Aim  and  Scope. — It  is  the  aim  of  the  College  of  Engi- 
neering to  furnish  such  training  as  will  be  useful  to  its 
graduates  in  the  profession  of  engineering.  Its  courses  of 
instruction  are  similar  to  those  of  other  American  engineer- 
ing schools  of  college  grade;  its  graduates  are  prepared  to 
fill  such  positions  as  are  usually  allotted  to  young  engineers. 

Scholastic  training  alone  cannot  make  a  competent  en- 
gineer, any  more  than  it  can  make  a  competent  physician  or 
lawyer.  It  can,  however,  fit  a  man  to  enter  the  profession  of 
engineering;  and  it  is  an  important  element  in  ultimate  suc- 
cess in  that  profession. 

The  work  of  the  College  is  divided  among  courses  of 
study  of  the  following  types:  (1)  Courses  in  the  sciences 
fundamental  to  the  practice  of  engineering,  of  which  mathe- 
matics, chemistry,  and  physics  are  the  most  important;  (2) 
courses  in  various  branches  of  engineering  practice  in  which 
those  sciences  are  applied,  such  as  structural  engineering, 
steam  and  gas  engineering,  or  electrical  engineering;  (3) 
courses  in  practical  work,  such  as  mechanic  arts,  drafting,  or 
surveying;  and  (4)  courses  contributing  primarily  to  general 
culture,  such  as  those  in  English  and  in  Spanish. 

Buildings  and  Equipment. — The  headquarters  and  prin- 
cipal building  of  the  College  is  Engineering  Hall,  which  is 
described  on  page  17.  A  description  of  the  engineering 
equipment  is  to  be  found  on  page  21. 

For  shop  work  a  separate  building  is  used.     (See  page  16.) 

Part  of  the  work  of  the  College  of  Engineering  coincides 
with  that  of  the  other  colleges  of  the  University ;  for  such  work 
the  same  classrooms  and  laboratories  are  utilized. 

Admission. — See  pages  34  to  41,  inclusive. 


112  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

Benton  Engineering  Society. — ^Weekly  meetings  of  this 
society  are  held,  at  which  each  member  in  turn  presents  a 
paper  on  some  topic  of  interest  to  engineering  students.  Mem- 
bership in  the  society  is  strongly  urged  upon  every  student  in 
the  College. 

Expenses. — See  page  29. 

Curricula  and  Degrees. — Four  curricula,  each  requiring 
four  years,  are  offered.  They  lead  to  the  degrees  of  Bach- 
elor of  Science  in  Civil  Engineering  (B.S.C.E.),  Bachelor  of 
Science  in  Electrical  Engineering  (B.S.E.E.),  Bachelor  of 
Science  in  Mechanical  Engineering  (B.S.M.E.),  and  Bachelor 
of  Science  in  Chemical  Engineering  (B.S.Ch.E.),  respectively. 

The  Freshman  year  is  the  same  for  all  engineering  stu- 
dents ;  the  Sophomore  year  is  the  same  for  electrical  and  me- 
chanical engineering  students.  The  work  in  English,  Span- 
ish, mathematics,  mechanics,  and  physics  is  the  same  thru- 
out  the  curriculum,  for  all  engineering  students,  and  in  part 
coincides  with  that  provided  for  students  in  the  College  of 
Arts  and  Sciences.  All  engineering  students  take  some  work 
in  chemistry,  drafting,  and  shop  practice,  but  the  time  de- 
voted to  these  subject  varies  in  the  different  curricula. 

The  degree  C.E.,  Ch.E.,  E.E.,  or  M.E.,  may  be  granted  to 
a  graduate  of  the  College  upon  recommendation  of  the  head  of 
the  department  in  which  it  is  sought,  and  with  the  concur- 
rence of  the  Faculty  of  the  College,  provided  the  candidate  sub- 
mits evidence  that  he  has  had,  subsequent  to  graduation,  from 
two  to  five  years  of  successful  and  responsible  engineering 
practice.  The  length  of  time  demanded  will  depend  on  the 
character  of  the  professional  experience,  and  on  the  average 
grade  which  the  candidate  obtained  while  an  undergraduate, 
which  must  be  90  or  more  in  order  to  obtain  the  degree  in  two 
years.  By  "responsible"  experience  is  meant  work  in  which 
the  candidate  has  to  use  his  own  initiative,  as  distinguished 
from  the  mere  rendering  of  routine  assistance. 

The  bachelor  degree  (B.S.C.E.,  B.S.Ch.E.,  B.S.E.E,  or  B.S. 
M.E.)  indicates  merely  the  completion  of  a  course  of  study  in 
the  theory  of  engineering;  while  the  later  degree  (C.E.,  Ch.E., 
E.E.,  or  M.E.)  indicates  demonstrated  proficiency  in  the  prac- 
tice of  some  branch  of  engineering.  Every  student  of  engi- 
neering should  look  forward  to  obtaining  one  of  these  degrees 
eventually. 


COLLEGE  OF  ENGINEERING  113 

To  obtain  one  of  these  degrees  application  should  be  made 
to  the  Dean  of  the  College  not  later  than  April  1st  preceding 
the  commencement  at  which  the  degree  may  be  awarded.

DEPARTMENTS  OF  INSTRUCTION 


CIVIL  ENGINEERING 

Professor  Thoroughgood 
Mr. * 

The  courses  in  this  department  are  designed  to  give  the 
student  a  comprehensive  grasp  of  the  principles  underlying 
the  practice  of  Civil  Engineering,  so  that  on  graduation  he 
will  be  fitted  to  enter  at  once  upon  field  or  ofllce  work  in  his 
profession. 

The  work  of  instruction  is  carried  on  by  means  of  as- 
signed recitations  from  standard  textbooks,  combined  vnth 
laboratory,  field,  and  drawing-room  exercises  for  the  purpose 
of  emphasizing  the  practical  side  of  the  subject. 

For  equipment,  see  page  22. 

A  cement  and  concrete  laboratory  has  recently  been  in- 
stalled for  the  testing  of  cement  and  concrete.  This  labora- 
tory is  of  late  design  and  is  a  substantial  addition  to  the 
other  laboratory  facilities  of  the  department. 

In  addition  to  the  facilities  afforded  directly  for  the  study 
of  Civil  Engineering,  there  will  be  found  in  the  general  library 
a  considerable  literature  on  this  and  allied  subjects :  more  ex- 
haustive treatises,  as  well  as  the  current  literature  from  which 
the  student  may  keep  abreast  of  up-to-date  practice. 

Surveying  I. — Recitations  on  the  use  of  the  chain,  com- 
pass, transit,  and  level;  determinations  of  areas,  and  instru- 
mental adjustments.  Field  work  in  chaining,  leveling,  com- 
pass, and  transit  surveys;  and  in  tests  and  adjustments  of

The  instruction  in  this  department  follows  theoretical  and 
practical  lines.  In  the  drafting-room  and  various  shops,  the 
best  practical  methods  are  always  kept  in  mind.  System,  ac- 
curacy, and  neatness  are  insisted  upon.  Engineering  maga- 
zines and  catalogs  of  the  best  machinery  are  accessible  to  the 
students,  who  are  encouraged  to  read  them.  While  acquaint- 
ing students  with  practical  methods,  the  aim  is  to  produce 
engineers  of  independent  thought  and  original  power.  In  all 
possible  ways  the  student  is  encouraged  to  think  for  himself — 
to  make  improvements  wherever  possible  and  thus  to  keep 
abreast  with  the  progress  of  the  times.

SCHOOL  FOR  RADIO  OPERATORS 

John  Eustace  Murray,  Instructor 

At  the  request  of  the  Federal  Board  for  Vocational  Educa- 
tion, and  in  accordance  with  the  plan  worked  out  in  its  Circular 
of  Information,  No.  1,  the  University  of  Florida  has  made 
provision  for  the  training  of  conscripted  men  for  service  as 
radio  and  buzzer  operators.  Only  conscripted  men  who  have 
waived  exemption  and  believe  themselves  physically  fit  for  the 


126  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

Army  or  Navy,  are  admitted ;  otherwise  there  are  no  entrance 
requirements.  For  the  convenience  of  conscripted  men  living 
in  Gainesville  and  its  vicinity  who  wish  to  receive  the  instruc- 
tion without  losing  time  from  their  occupations,  the  class  has 
met  at  night;  the  apparatus  is,  however,  also  available  for 
practice  during  the  day. 

Monthly  reports  are  made  to  the  Federal  Board  for  Voca- 
tional Education  in  Washington.  Upon  attaining  the  required 
degree  of  proficiency  as  an  operator,  each  student  receives  a 
certificate  to  that  effect,  on  a  form  provided  by  the  govern- 
ment. 

The  work  of  the  class  is  so  arranged  that  new  members  can 
be  admitted  at  any  time,  and  can  receive  certificates  of  pro- 
ficiency whenever  the  necessary  proficiency  is  attained. 

The  class  was  organized  on  December  6,  1917,  and  will  be 
continued  as  long  as  the  Army  and  Navy  are  in  need  of  having 
large  numbers  of  radio  operators  trained.

GENERAL  STATEMENT 

Aim  and  Scope. — In  1891,  the  American  Bar  Association 
declared  that  in  its  opinion  it  was  a  part  of  the  highest  duty 
and  interest  of  every  civilized  state  to  make  provision,  when 
necessary,  for  maintaining  schools  of  law  and  for  the  thoro 
legal  education  of  all  who  are  licensed  to  practice  law.  Rec- 
ognizing the  soundness  of  this  doctrine  and  desiring  to  dis- 
charge this  duty  on  the  part  of  the  State,  the  State  Board  of 
Education  and  the  Board  of  Control  provided  for  the  opening 
of  the  College  of  Law  in  the  University  of  Florida  in  Sep- 
tember, 1909.  The  advantages  to  accrue  to  the  State  from 
having,  as  a  part  of  its  educational  system,  a  thoro  and  sys- 
tematic course  of  instruction  in  the  common  law,  with  special 
consideration  of  the  peculiarities  and  exceptions  applicable  in 
Florida,  are  many  and  evident. 

It  was  the  purpose  of  the  Board  of  Control  to  establish 
a  law  school  which,  by  the  quality  of  its  work  and  the  char- 
acter of  its  equipment,  would  merit  and  command  the  con- 
fidence and  support  of  the  bench  and  bar  of  the  State  and  of 


*To  be  elected. 


128  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

the  nation.  That  the  hopes  of  accomplishing  these  results 
were  well  founded  and  that  gratifying  progress  towards  these 
ends  has  been  made,  are  shown  by  the  number  and  character 
of  those  who  have  availed  themselves  of  the  advantages  offer- 
ed by  the  College  of  Law. 

Requirements  for  Admission. — See  pages  34  to  41,  in- 
clusive. 

Special  Students. — See  "Adult  Specials,"  page  26.  If 
entrance  conditions  are  removed  not  later  than  the  opening  of 
the  Senior  year,  such  students  may  become  regular  students 
and  candidates  for  a  degree. 

Advanced  Standing. — No  work  in  law  done  in  other  in- 
stitutions will  be  accepted  towards  a  degree,  unless  the  appli- 
cant passes  satisfactorily  the  examinations  held  in  the  sub- 
jects in  question  in  this  College,  or  unless,  by  special  vote  of 
the  Faculty,  credit  is  given  without  examination.  In  no  case 
will  credit  be  given  for  work  not  done  in  residence  at  an  ap- 
proved law  school. 

Examinations. — The  last  week  of  each  semester  is  de- 
voted to  examinations  covering  the  work  of  the  semester. 
These  examinations  are  in  writing  and  are  rigid  and  search- 
ing, but  are  not  necessarily  final. 

University  Practice  Courts. — Thoroly  organized  prac- 
tice courts  are  regular  features  of  the  course  of  instruction  in 
the  third  year.  The  object  of  the  course  in  the  Practice 
Courts  is  to  give  the  student  practical  instruction  in  pleading 
and  practice  at  law  and  in  equity,  and  experience  in  the  prep- 
aration and  trial  of  cases.    The  work  is  arranged  as  follows : 

First. — Cases  arising  upon  prepared  statements  of  fact 
are  assigned  to  the  third-year  students,  upon  which  they  are 
to  determine  what  proceedings  to  bring  and  how  to  bring 
them,  issue,  serve,  and  return  process,  prepare  the  pleadings 
and  bring  the  case  to  an  issue  on  a  question  of  law.  The  case 
is  heard  on  the  sufficiency  of  the  form  and  the  structure  of 
the  pleadings;  when  these  are  approved  the  issue  of  law  is 
argued  and  decided,  the  students  acting  as  attorneys  draw- 
ing the  order,  judgment,  or  decree  to  which  they  deem  them- 
selves entitled. 

Second. — In  the  second  class  of  cases,  actual  controversies 
are  arranged  and  assigned  for  trial  in  the  Circuit  Court  as 


COLLEGE  OF  LAW  129 

issues  of  fact.  After  determining  what  action  to  bring,  the 
students  assigned  to  the  case  are  required  to  issue  the  proper 
process  and  prepare  and  file  the  necessary  pleadings,  subpoe- 
na the  witnesses,  select  the  jury,  examine  and  cross-examine 
the  witnesses,  and  argue  the  case  to  the  jury.  Each  student 
is  required  to  participate  in  the  trial  of  at  least  one  common- 
law,  one  equity,  and  one  criminal  case  and  is  instructed  in 
appellate  procedure. 

The  work  of  the  Practice  Court  in  Common  Law  Pleading 
and  Procedure  is  conducted  by  Professor  Crandall;  that  in 
Equity  Pleading  and  Procedure  by  Professor  Arnold ;  that  in 
Criminal  Pleading  and  Procedure  by  Professor  Summers. 

Library. — Law  books  are  the  working  tools  of  the  practic- 
ing lawyer.  To  teach  the  student  how  to  use  these  tools,  how 
to  use  the  digests,  encyclopedias,  and  reports,  is  as  much  the 
work  of  the  law  school  as  to  teach  him  the  general  principles 
of  the  law. 

The  College  of  Law  has  on  its  shelves  the  following  books : 

Three  sets  of  the  Florida  Reports  with  Wurts'  Digest  and  Supple- 
ment; Shepard's  Florida  Citations;  The  Session  Laws  of  Florida  from

in  the  law  library,  but  it  will  be  necessary  for  students  to 
provide  themselves  with  books  for  their  daily  use.  Nearly  all 
of  the  books  are  standard  texts  and  will  form  a  nucleus  of 
the  student's  future  library. 

Marshall  Debating  Society. — It  is  important  that  those 
who  study  law  and  intend  to  engage  in  its  practice  should  give 
attention  to  the  subject  of  public  speaking.  To  suppose  that 
excellence  in  public  speaking  and  debating  is  a  gift  of  nature 
and  not  the  result  of  patient  and  persistent  effort,  is  a  mis- 
take. Believing  in  the  truth  of  this  statement,  the  students 
in  the  College  met  early  the  first  year  and  organized  a  society 
that  would  secure  to  its  members  practice  in  debating  and 
public  speaking  and  experience  in  arguing  legal  questions, 
as  well  as  drill  in  parliamentary  law.  The  society  was  fitting- 
ly named  "The  Marshall  Debating  Society,"  in  honor  of  the 
memory  of  the  distinguished  Southern  jurist,  John  Marshall. 
The  membership  and  work  in  the  society  are  limited  to  stu- 
dents in  the  College  of  Law,  but  the  Faculty  give  all  possible 
assistance  and  encouragement. 

University  Privileges. — The  advantages  of  the  other  col- 
leges of  the  University  are  open  to  such  students  in  the  Col- 
lege of  Law  as  desire  and  are  able  to  accept  them.  Courses 
in  Constitutional  and  Political  History,  International  Law, 
Political  Economy,  Logic,  Rhetoric  and  English  Composition 
are  particularly  recommended.  No  extra  charge  will  be  made 
for  such  courses,  but  they  can  be  taken  only  with  the  consent 
of  the  Law  Faculty  and  of  the  professors  concerned. 

Prizes. — Thru  the  liberality  of  law  publishers  the  College 
announced  the  following  prizes  for  the  session  of  1917-18 : 

The  American  Law  Book  Company  of  New  York  City: 
Students'  Edition  of  Cyc,  12  vols.  Awarded  to  the  Senior  in 
attendance  for  two  years  whose  average  grade  for  both  years 
of  the  course  was  highest.

Digests  and  Indexes  to  Notes  of  the  American  State  Reports 
and  American  Annotated  Cases,  9  vols.  Awarded  to  the

COLLEGE  OF  LAW  131 

tionary.  Awarded  to  the  Senior  whose  average  grade  in  the 
Practice  Court  was  highest. 

Degrees. — The  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Laws  (LL.B.)  is  con- 
ferred upon  those  students  who  satisfactorily  complete  the 
courses  of  study.  Students  admitted  to  advanced  standing 
may,  if  they  do  satisfactorily  the  work  prescribed,  receive  the 
degree  after  one  year's  residence,  but  in  no  case  will  the  de- 
gree be  granted  unless  the  candidate  is  in  actual  residence 
during  all  of  the  third  year. 

Students  who  have  complied  with  all  the  requirements 
for  the  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Laws  (LL.B),  who  have  main- 
tained an  average  standing  in  their  law  studies  10%  above  the 
passing  mark,  and  who  have  obtained  the  degree  of  A.B.,  or 
an  equivalent  degree,  from  an  approved  college  or  university, 
or  who  secure  such  degree  the  same  year  they  complete  their 
law  course,  will  be  awarded  the  degree  of  Juris  Doctor  (J.D.). 

Combined  Academic  and  Law  Course. — By  pursuing  an 
approved  course  of  collegiate  and  law  studies,  a  student  may 
earn  both  the  academic  and  the  legal  degree  in  six  years. 
(See  page  46.) 

Expenses. — A  tuition  fee  of  $20.00  per  semester,  payable 
in  advance,  is  charged  all  law  students,  except  those  taking 
less  than  eleven  hours  of  work,  who  are  charged  a  propor- 
tional part  of  the  full  tuition.  For  the  first  two  years  of 
the  course  the  required  law  books  new  will  cost  about  $41.00 
each  year;  and  for  the  Senior  year,  about  $51.00.  Students 
also  are  urged  to  provide  themselves  with  the  statutes  of  their 
own  state  and  a  law  dictionary.  Many  of  these  books,  how- 
ever, will  form  a  nucleus  of  the  student's  future  library ;  and 
by  the  purchase  of  second-hand  books  their  cost  may  be  ma- 
terially reduced. 

Admission  to  the  Bar. — Upon  presenting  their  diplomas, 
duly  issued  by  the  proper  authorities,  and  upon  furnishing 
satisfactory  evidence  that  they  are  twenty-one  years  of  age 
and  of  good  moral  character,  the  graduates  of  the  College  are 
licensed  by  the  Supreme  Court,  without  examination,  to  prac- 
tice in  the  Courts  of  Florida.  They  also  are  admitted  without 
examination  to  th3  United  States  District  Court  for  the 
Northern  District  of  Florida.

COURSE  OF  INSTRUCTION 

The  course  of  instruction  extends  thru  three  years  of 
thirty-five  weeks  each,  exclusive  of  vacations.  The  academic 
year  is  divided  into  two  semesters,  the  first  having  eighteen 
weeks  and  the  second  seventeen. 

The  method  of  instruction  combines  the  use  of  textbooks, 
court  rules,  statutes,  and  selected  cases.  Each  case  is  care- 
fully studied  by  the  student,  and  in  the  classroom  he  is  re- 
quired to  analyze  it,  giving  in  his  own  language  a  clear  and 
concise  statement  of  the  essential  facts,  the  issues  involved  in 
the  case,  the  law  governing  it,  and  the  reasoning  of  the  court 
for  the  conclusion  reached.  This  practice  tends  to  thoroness 
in  reading,  care  in  reasoning,  and  accuracy  on  the  part  of  the 
student  in  the  art  of  expression. 

In  connection  with  this  case  work,  the  student  studies  a 
well  written  textbook  on  the  subject  under  consideration. 
This  gives  him  a  systematic  summary  of  the  same,  more 
detailed  information  concerning  the  application  of  the  law  in 
particular  instances,  and  an  outline  of  the  exceptions  to  and 
limitations  upon  the  general  principles  considered  in  the 
cases. 

Particular  stress  is  placed  upon  the  statutory  modifications 
of  the  common  law  and  the  recent  decisions  of  the  courts.  This 
is  true  in  every  subject  in  the  curriculum ;  but  it  is  especially 
emphasized  in  Pleading,  Practice,  and  Evidence,  as  the  course 
of  study  is  designed  to  instruct  the  student  thoroly  in  the  pe- 
culiarities of  procedure,  so  that  he  will  be  able  understanding- 
ly  to  enter  upon  the  practice  of  law.  Students  are  offered  the 
option  of  intensive  training  under  either  the  code  or  the  com- 
mon law. 

With  these  ends  in  view,  the  following  course  of  study 
has  been  prepared:

GENERAL  STATEMENT 

The  Teachers  College  and  Normal  School  is  a  professional 
school,  the  main  purpose  of  which  is  to  train  young  men  for 
positions  in  the  public-school  system  of  the  State  as  teachers, 
principals,  supervisors,  or  as  county  or  city  superintendents 
of  public  instruction.  Its  Review  Courses  are  intended  to 
prepare  for  the  examinations  for  County  and  State  Certifi- 
cates. For  those  not  wishing  to  become  teachers  it  offers 
courses  giving  the  information  about  and  the  insight  into 
modern  educational  problems  that  every  intelligent  citizen 
should  possess. 

Vocational  Education. — By  Act  of  the  Legislature  of 
1917  the  University  was  designed  as  the  institution,  under 
the  Smith-Hughes  Act,  for  training  teachers  for  Agriculture 
and  for  Trades  and  Industries.  Arrangements  are  being  made 
to  offer  this  work  during  the  session  of  1918-19.  A  tentative 
curriculum  for  Agricultural  Education  has  been  outlined;  a 
curriculum  for  the  Trades  and  Industries  is  being  prepared. 
It  is  hoped  that  a  large  number  of  students  will  register  for 
these  courses.  Many  teachers  of  these  subjects  will  be  need- 
ed and  good  salaries  will  be  paid. 

Peabody  Hall. — A  description  of  Peabody  Hall,  the  home 
of  the  College,  is  to  be  found  on  page  17. 

Library. — The  pedagogical  library  receives  many  of  the 
best  educational  journals  and  contains  the  standard  books  on 
educational  theory,  general  and  special  methods,  the  history 
of  education,  psych®logy,  and  philosophy.  Additions  are  made 
every  year. 

Psychological  Laboratory. — The  Psychological  Labora- 


142  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

tory  (see  page  21)  affords  an  excellent  opportunity  to  inves- 
tigate the  laws  of  the  mind.  To  know  these  thru  experiment 
will  give  the  teacher  greater  power  to  direct  their  develop- 
ment in  the  child. 

Peabody  Club. — This  Club  meets  once  a  week  to  discuss 
educational  problems,  especially  those  that  confront  the  young 
teacher.  It  also  brings  out  the  advantages  of  holding  teachers' 
meetings  and  conferences.  All  students  of  the  College  are 
urged  to  become  members  of  the  Club  and  to  take  an  active 
part  in  its  work. 

Organization. — The  Teachers  College  and  Normal  School 
has  the  following  divisions : 

(1)  Teachers  College. 

(2)  Normal  School. 

(3)  Practice  High  School. 

(4)  Teachers'  Employment  Bureau. 

(5)  State  High  School  Inspection. 

(6)  Correspondence  School. 

(7)  University  Summer  School. 

State  Certificates. — Graduates  of  the  Teachers  College 
and  of  the  Normal  School  are  granted  State  Certificates  with- 
out further  examination — provided  that  one-fifth  of  their 
work  has  been  devoted  to  professional  training  and  provided 
that  during  each  of  the  last  two  years  of  their  course  they 
make  a  general  average  of  eighty-five  on  all  subjects  and  do 
not  fall  below  sixty  in  any  subject.  These  State  Certificates 
are  converted  into  Life  Certificates  in  the  usual  way.

The  former  Sub-Collegiate  division  of  the  University  has 
been  so  widened  as  to  make  it  a  practice  and  model  school  for 
the  students  of  education.  Here  student-teachers  will  have 
opportunity  to  observe  the  methods  of  skilled  instructors,  as 
well  as  to  practice  teaching,  under  guidance,  the  high-school 
subjects  in  which  they  are  most  interested. 

Admission. — Only  graduates  of  Junior  high  schools,  or 
pupils  who  have  finished  work  equal  to  that  of  the  tenth 
grade,  will  be  admitted.  No  pupil  will  be  enrolled  who  has  not 
completed  the  course  offered  by  the  high  school  at  his  home,  ex- 
cept upon  the  written  application  of  parent  or  guardian,  ac- 
companied by  the  endorsement  of  his  high-school  principal. 
The  number  admitted  to  either  grade  vdll  be  limited  to  twen- 
ty-five.

ducted for  or  by  the  University  students.  A  pupil  violating 
this  regulation  will  be  required  to  withdraw  immediately  from 
the  High  School.  Pledging  one's  self  to  join  in  subsequent 
years  a  fraternity  is  considered  a  flagrant  violation  of  the 
regulation. 

Studies. — The  work  is  that  of  the  eleventh  and  twelfth 
grades  of  the  standard  high  schools  of  Florida.  Not  less  than 
sixteen  nor  more  than  twenty  hours  may  be  taken  in  any  one 
year  except  by  special  permission ;  all  choice  is  subject  to  the 
approval  of  the  Dean  of  the  Teachers  College.

STATE  HIGH  SCHOOL  INSPECTION 

This  division  of  the  College  was  made  possible  thru  the 
liberality  of  the  General  Education  Board  of  New  York.  (See 
page  12.) 

Professor  W.  S.  Cawthon  will  visit  and  inspect  the  high 
schools  of  the  State,  and  promote  in  every  way  possible  their 
development.  He  will  give  what  aid  he  can  toward  estab- 
lishing high  schools  where  they  do  not  exist.  Whenever  re- 
quested, he  will  gladly  discuss  with  school  officials  or  private 
citizens  any  educational  matter  that  may  tend  toward  the 
welfare  and  improvement  of  those  already  established. 

TEACHERS'  EMPLOYMENT  BUREAU 

This  Bureau  was  instituted  to  assist  teachers  who  had  at- 
tended the  University  in  securing  positions  and  to  furnish 
schools  with  efficient  instructors.  At  the  request  of  many 
school  officials,  and  because  of  the  difficulty,  due  to  the  scarcity 
of  trained  teachers,  that  county  superintendents  and  high- 
school  principals  often  encounter  in  filling  vacancies,  the  serv- 
ices of  the  Bureau  have  been  placed  at  the  disposal  of  every 
good  teacher  in  the  State.  The  cooperation  of  superintendents, 
principals,  and  teachers  is  invited.  Officials  needing  trained 
men  or  women,  and  teachers  desiring  promotion  or  change, 
are  asked  to  call  upon  the  Bureau  for  its  aid.  No  charges  are 
made  for  services.

GENERAL  STATEMENT 

Because  of  the  demand  for  instruction  on  the  part  of 
those  unable  to  attend  an  institution  of  learning,  several  cor- 
respondence courses  are  offered.  These  may  be  begun  at  any 
time  during  the  regular  session  of  the  University  and  will,  if 
successfully  completed,  entitle  the  student  to  a  certificate  or  to 
credit  towards  a  degree  or  diploma  from  the  Teachers  College 
and  Normal  School.    Credit  for  one-half  of  the  work  required 


158  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

for  graduation  may  be  thus  secured,  altho  degree  or  diploma  is 
not  conferred  until  the  candidate  has  attended  the  College  for 
at  least  one  entire  school  year  or  the  Summer  School  for  at  least 
three  sessions. 

No  minor,  unless  he  is  teaching,  will  be  registered  for  a 
course  that  can  be  taken  in  a  high  school  in  his  county,  ex- 
cept upon  the  recommendation  of  the  high-schoool  principal. 

A  registration  fee  of  $5.00  is  charged  for  each  course.  No 
fee  for  tuition  is  charged  legal  residents  of  Florida. 

During  the  session  of  1917-18  the  following  courses  were 
offered :

UNIVERSITY  SUMMER  SCHOOL  159 

GENERAL  STATEMENT 

The  University  Summer  School  was  provided  for  by  the 
"Summer  School  Act"  passed  by  the  Legislature  of  1913. 

The  entire  equipment  of  the  University  is  at  the  service  of 
the  faculty  and  students.  Ample  provision  is  made  for  in- 
tellectual recreation  and  physical  exercise.  The  Peabody  Lit- 
erary Society  meets  weekly;  lectures  or  concerts  are  given 
every  Friday  evening;  the  gymnasium,  swimming-pool,  base- 
ball grounds,  and  tennis  courts  are  at  the  disposition  of  the 
students  and  an  instructor  is  at  hand  to  direct  athletic  activi- 
ties. 

Regulations  governing  the  social  life  of  the  students  are, 
for  the  most  part,  drawn  up  and  enforced  by  a  committee  con- 
sisting of  a  faculty  representative  and  members  elected  by  the 
student-body. 

Regulations. — To  fulfil  its  highest  mission  the  Summer 
School  should  not  be  utilized  merely  for  the  purpose  of  "cram- 
ming" for  examinations.  It  is  therefore  hoped  that  all  teach- 
ers will  recognize  the  wisdom  of  the  Summer  School  Board  in 
establishing  the  following  regulations  : 

1.  No  teacher  shall  be  allowed  to  take  more  than  twenty  hours  per 
week  of  purely  academic  subjects. 

2.  No  teacher  shall  take  less  than  five  hours  per  week  of  professional 
work. 

3.  The  maximum  number  of  hours  per  week,  including  professional, 
vocational,  and  academic  subjects,  shall,  in  no  case,  exceed  twenty-seven. 
Two  laboratory  hours  shall  count  as  one  hour  of  academic  work. 

Credit  for  Work. — Attention  is  directed  to  the  following 
sections  of  the  "Summer  School  Act" : 

CREDIT  TOWARDS  NORMAL  SCHOOL  AND  COLLEGE  DEGREES 

Sec.  5. — "All  work  conducted  at  the  said  Summer  Schools  shall  be  of 
such  character  as  to  entitle  the  students  doing  the  same  to  collegiate, 
normal,  or  professional  credit  therefor,  and  may  be  applied  towards 
making  a  degree." 

In  order  to  carry  out  the  spirit  of  this  provision,  the  Uni- 
versity allows,  under  restrictions,  a  maximum  of  four  and  a 
half  credit  hours  for  work  done  at  any  one  session  of  the  Sum- 
mer School  and  recognizes  attendance  at  three  sessions  as 
satisfying  the  residence  requirement  for  securing  a  Normal 
School  Certificate  or  a  degree  from  the  Teachers  College.  By 
combining  credits  gained  at  the  Summer  School  with  those 
gained  in  the  Correspondence  School,  it  is  possible  for  a  teacher 
to  secure  a  certificate  or  a  degree  without  losing  a  prohibitive 


160  UNIVERSITY  OF  FLORIDA 

amount  of  time  from  his  work.  Certificates  and  degrees  se- 
cured in  this  way  are  awarded,  when  so  desired,  on  the  last 
day  of  a  session  of  the  Summer  School. 

Sec.  6. — "All  teachers  attending  any  of  the  Summer  Schools  herein 
created  and  whose  work  entitles  them  to  credit  therefor,  upon  making 
proof  of  the  same  to  the  State  Superintendent  of  Public  Instruction,  are 
hereby  entitled  to  one  year's  extension  on  any  Florida  teacher's  certificate 
that  they  may  hold  and  which  has  not  fully  expired,  and  such  certificate 
may  be  extended  one  year  for  each  succeeding  session  attended  by  the 
said  teacher." 

Certificates  of  credit  making  proof  of  the  work  done  will 
be  granted  by  the  State  Superintendent  and  the  President  of 
the  University  only  to  those  teachers  who  attend  the  full  term 
and  whose  work  is  satisfactory. 

Expenses. — There  is  no  charge  for  tuition.  Board  and 
lodging  (including  lights)  will  be  offered  at  $5.00  per  week, 
or  $35.00  for  the  entire  session  of  eight  weeks,  payable  in 
either  case  in  advance.  Those  occupying  dormitory  rooms 
must,  however,  furnish  their  own  pillows,  bed  linen,  and 
towels. 

COURSES  OF  STUDY 

Inasmuch  as  the  courses  given  during  the  session  of  1917 
were  fully  described  in  the  Summer  School  Bulletin  of  that 
year  and  were,  furthermore,  for  the  most  part  very  similar 
in  character  to  the  corresponding  ones  of  the  Teachers  College 
and  Normal  School  and  inasmuch  as  a  detailed  program  for  the 
session  of  1918  will,  as  soon  as  it  is  ready,  be  published  sep- 
arately, it  is  thought  unnecessary  here  to  make  more  than  mere 
mention  of  them. 

The  subjects  taught  fell  into  the  following  groups : 

Group  I. — Subjects  required  for  County  Certificates :  Ag- 
riculture, Algebra,  Arithmetic,  Civil  Government,  English 
Composition,  English  Grammar,  Hygiene,  Orthography,  Peda- 
gogy, Physical  Geography,  Political  Geography,  Reading, 
United  States  and  Florida  History. 

The  character  of  the  work  was  the  same  as  that  of  the  Re- 
view Courses  of  the  Normal  School.  The  number  of  hours  per 
week  devoted  to  each  subject  was  also  the  same,  except  that 
two  hours  per  week  were  given  to  Physical  Geography  and 
four  hours  each  per  week  to  English  Composition,  English 
Grammar,  Pedagogy,  Political  Geography,  and  to  United 
States  and  Florida  History. 


UNIVERSITY  SUMMER  SCHOOL  161 

Group  II. — Subjects  required  for  State  Certificates :  Bot- 
any, English  Literature,  General  History,  Geometry,  Latin 
(Beginner's,  Caesar,  Virgil,  Prose  Composition),  Physics, 
Psychology,  Rhetoric,  Trigonometry,  Zoology. 

The  textbooks  used  were  those  prescribed  by  the  State.  The 
methods  employed  and  the  ground  covered  were  as  far  as  pos- 
sible the  same  as  those  in  the  Normal  School,  from  which  upon 
successful  completion  of  any  course  the  student  was  entitled 
to  credit  towards  a  diploma. 

Group  III. — Subjects  leading  to  special  State  Certificates 
or  to  a  college  degree :  Agriculture,  Business,  Drawing,  Eco- 
nomics, Education,  English,  German,  History,  Horticulture, 
Latin,  Manual  Training,  Mathematics  (Advanced  Algebra, 
Plane  Analytical  Geometry,  Trigonometry,  Pedagogy  of 
Mathematics),  Penmanship,  Philosophy  (Experimental  Psy- 
chology, Abnormal  Psychology,  Ethics),  Primary  Methods, 
South  American  Affairs,  Sociology,  Spanish,  Zoology. 

Owing  to  the  greater  number  of  hours  per  week  and  the 
greater  intensity  of  effort  than  is  usual  during  the  regular 
college  year  more  ground  was  covered  than  is  ordinarily  done 
in  the  same  time. 

Group  IV. — Subjects  of  general  interest  not  included  under 
Group  III :  Bird-study,  Expression  and  Public  Speaking,  Gym- 
nastics, Music,  Story  Telling,  Swimming.

the  dormitories,  address  Dean  H.  W.  Cox,  University  of

GIFTS  TO  THE  UNIVERSITY  SUMMER  SCHOOL 

Instructor  in  Spanish  and  South  American  Affairs. — 
The  University  of  Florida  and  the  Board  of  Control  here 
record  their  grateful  appreciation  of  the  gift  of  three  hun- 
dred dollars  ($300)  from  the  Carnegie  Endowment  for 
International  Peace.  In  compliance  w^ith  this  gift,  the 
Board  of  Control  has  secured  the  services  of  a  professor 
of  Spanish  and  Portuguese  Languages  and  South  Ameri- 
can Affairs  for  the  Summer  School.  Because  of  this  gift 
the  Summer  School  will  again  be  able  to  offer  attractive 
courses  in  these  subjects  which  should  appeal  to  many- 
students.      (See  courses  on  other  pages.) 

Instructor  in  Bird  Study. — This  opportunity  is  taken 
to  thank  the  National  Association  of  Audubon  Societies  for 
making  it  possible  for  the  Summer  School  to  offer  a  course 
in  Bird-Study.  For  this  work  the  Society  furnishes  a  spe- 
cial instructor  who  will  spend  one  month  here,  devoting 
all  his  time  to  this  splendid  work.  (See  other  pages  for 
outline  of  course.) 

LOCATION  OF  THE  UNIVERSITY 

Gainesville,  the  seat  of  the  University,  a  town  of  10,000 
inhabitants,  possesses  numerous  advantages.  It  is  centrally 
located  and  easy  of  access,  being  reached  by  the  leading 
railroads  of  the  State.  It  has  well  paved,  lighted  and 
shaded  streets,  an  exceptional  pure  water  supply  and  a 
good  sewerage  system.  The  citizens  are  energetic,  pro- 
gressive and  hospitable.  The  moral  atmosphere  is  whole- 
some, and  for  many  years  the  sale  of  intoxicants  has  been 
prohibited  by  law.  All  the  leading  denominations  have 
attractive  places  of  worship.

teachers  a  wonderful  opportunity  to  investigate  at  first 
hand  the  great  laws  of  the  mind.  To  know  these  through 
experiment  will  give  the  teachers  a  far  greater  power  to 
direct  properly  their  development  of  the  child.  The  lab- 
oratory will  contain  all  of  the  appliances  and  apparatus 
necessary  for  thorough  and  efficient  work  in  experimental 
psychology.

college  work.  Its  purpose  is  to  train  drafted  men  to  pro- 
ficiency in  sending  and  receiving  messages  in  code  on  a 
buzzer — like  a  telegraph  operator.  This  course  can  be 
commenced  at  any  time,  and  ordinarily  can  be  finished  in 
six  weeks.  It  is  open  to  all  men  of  draft  age  who  are

REGULATIONS 

When   credit  or  extension  certificates   is   desired  the 
following  regulations  established  by  the  Summer  School.

1.  No  teacher  shall  be  allowed  to  take  more  than 
twenty  hours  per  week  of  purely  academic  subjects. 

2.  No  teacher  shall  take  less  than  five  hours  per  week 
of  professional  work.

22  University  of  Florida 

5.  An  extra  fee  of  one  dollar  will  be  charged  for  any 
change  of  registration  after  the  first  week. 

It  is  hoped  that  all  teachers  will  recognize  the  wisdom 
of  the  above  regulations.  To  fulfil  its  highest  mission  the 
Summer  School  should  not  be  utilized  merely  for  the  pur- 
pose of  "cramming"  for  examinations. 

Attention  is  directed  to  the  following  section  of  the 
Summer  School  Act: 

EXTENSION  OF  TEACHERS'   CERTIFICATES 

Section  6  of  a  recent  Act  of  the  Legislature  provides 
that: 

"All  teachers  attending  any  of  the  Summer  Schools 
herein  created  and  whose  work  entitles  them  to  credit 
therefor,  upon  making  proof  of  the  same  to  the  State 
Superintendent  of  Public  Instruction,  are  hereby  entitled 
to  one  year's  extension  on  any  Florida  teacher's  certificate 
they  may  hold  and  which  has  not  fully  expired,  and  such 
certificate  may  be  extended  one  year  for  each  succeeding 
session  attended  by  the  said  teacher." 

Under  this  section  of  the  law,  no  certificate  of  credit 
making  proof  of  the  work  done  will  be  granted  by  the  State 
Superintendent  and  the  Presidents  of  the  Summer  Schools, 
except  to  those  teachers  who  attend  the  full  term  and 
whose  work  shall  be  satisfactory  to  the  faculty  concerned. 

CREDIT  TOWARDS  NORMAL  SCHOOL  AND  COLLEGE  DEGREES 

Section  5  of  Summer  School  Act  is  as  follows : 

"All  work  conducted  at  the  said  Summer  Schools  shall 
be  of  such  character  as  to  entitle  the  students  doing  the 
same  to  collegiate,  normal  or  professional  credit  therefor, 
and  may  be  applied  towards  making  a  degree." 

ROOMS
